I'll have to disagree with you there, but merely through my own beliefs. I believe the doctors acted in the best interest of the children's well being both before and after birth, and I believe the parents, while mostly doing the same, are constrained by religious doctrine to refuse certain medical procedures no matter what.
In the end, I feel more sorry for the children, who will now be regarded as "tainted" by their family and community.

There I am in agreement, but I find that both sides have expressed their bias. Some in support of the doctors are jumping to the conclusion that the parents are murderers (without knowing all the facts), and some in support of the parents are jumping to the conclusion that the doctors are cruel and inhumane (I still can't believe that guy on the CBC website who claimed it was all a conspiracy to prop up the blood transfusion industry...)
