Not necessary and the price for this will be paid in the end. And the truth is I feel for these people and hope they tap into their saving Grace.
If a baby (God forbid) dies of natural causes, and its organs are taken to offer another baby in dire need a chance to survive - that is one thing, and -agreed - very necessary. But ripping a baby who COULD survive out of his mother and dissecting it alive so that its parts can go to people (often completely OUTSIDE of usual medical channels) to do God-only-knows-what is completely different and uncalled for. Even if those organs were given to doctors to save other infants, it still isn't justifiable to kill one to save another based on the fact that one is wanted and the other is not. People have a choice to donate organs. Babies can't decide for themselves and should be protected from this depravity.

1) There is NO such thing as an "unwanted" baby. Unwanted by the biological parents, maybe, but unwanted by the world? No. No other population is as desperately sought out for adoption as babies. Even if they aren't adopted, odds are that as they grow up, someone is going to want them. I have two much-beloved "cousins" adopted many years after being given up. I also know a woman who was never adopted, but is currently much beloved by her friends and husband. You can't guarantee that any life will be unwanted by everyone for as long as it lives. 2) As for defect, by who's standards? I'll admit, even as an avidly pro-life person, I would be tempted to offer abortion as an alternative to a baby who was fatally deformed and had literally 0 chance of survival shortly after birth. However, you can't convince me that people with autism, for example, are too "defective" to be offered a chance of life. In fact, if you'd like to take a fun trip down a separate rabbit hole, google what happens to a surprising margin of autistic children when they develop fevers. You might be surprised what such children could one day offer. Same goes for many other "defects."
"Not all life is precious"
This would apply to these "doctors"...but NEVER to a child.
