A justified form of murder? Admittedly I'd have to say yes IMHO.
But balancing that against having to bear a child that only serves as a continual reminder of an already heinous crime, and continual victimization at that? That's a price I'd say that justifies the act of murder in this case, especially when I'd expect most abortions in such cases would be performed quite early in the pregnancy, before the child has gained sentience.
Imprisoning or executing the children once they've been born however, is ridiculous.
