Discussion Question: Pre-emptive Abortion

If, using DNA analysis, it could be determined with "slam-dunk*" certainty that an unborn fetus was going to emerge from the womb armed with and ready to use a weapon of mass destruction, would Bush be morally justified in ordering the pre-emptive abortion of the fetus to Protect America? What if it required a "partial-birth" abortion?

* i.e., the same level of certainty used to justify the invasion of Iraq
