In Israel women must go before a termination committee to get approval BECAUSE abortion ends a human life.
NFBW; Who says abortion ends a human life in Israel.
The issue of abortions, which are legal but require the okay of a medical termination panel — which approves nearly all cases — rarely captures headlines in Israel. But two lawmakers caused a stir this week when they convened a Knesset committee meeting Monday urging the inclusion of a religious figure on the panels, spotlighting the issue and drawing a furious response from female opposition Knesset members.

Attendees at Monday’s at-times heated hearing focused primarily on condemning the proposed inclusion of a religious representative, F but also touched on whether to reconsider the longstanding practice of the termination panels altogether — under which, in 98.9% of cases last year — women between the ages of 17-40 were approved for abortions.
