"Lo, These Six Things the LORD Doth Hate, Nay, Seven are an Abomination to His {Very} Soul...the Shedding of Innocent Blood"

War itself is and has ever been barbaric, a recourse resorted to by (in)human beings when all else has - or rather appears to have - failed. Whatever apparently Scriptural basis of legitimacy people have cited in its behalf. As some have so rightly suggested, whatever God is said to allow is often depicted as if it were His own intention; which it often isn't.

Anyhow, though most people (in their moments of utmost dispassionateness) will defend to the rafters those who (happen to) kill/take (human) life - in defence of their own (life/lives) or that of their family, tribe or people - anytime one crosses that invisible line and begins to take innocent ('civilian') life they have thereby forfeited not only any legitimate human sympathy/understanding but much more importantly God's approval - which is the one, when all is said and done, that ultimately really, truly matters...

Were we as willing in this our day of brightest midday sunlight to do as much!

Before the End [of All Things Comes About]/the Final Acts in the Long-Running Drama of the Great Controversy Between Good & Evil/Christ & Satan for Planet Earth, EVERY PRINCIPLE of the American Constitution Will be Revoked...

But let's get something else straight before we go/proceed any further... There's no - self-evident, self-existent, everlasting - 'constitutional right' in the United States of America to an abortion, rather the U S Supreme Court, back in 1972 - in the now much-celebrated/pilloried 'Roe vs Wade' decision - created a constitutionally-supported 'right' to the same... ...something no less a jurist than former, long-serving Ruth Bader Ginsberg herself evidently regarded as very poor law - as such - indeed (however much she in heart agreed with and applauded the particular outcome that eventuated thereby)...
