The abortion rate is now approaching one in five pregnancies (18.3%), according to the report.<br \/>\n[&#8230;]<br \/>\nThe report uses images to demonstrate the seriousness of Spain&#8217;s abortion rate: the <strong>equivalent population of a mid-sized high school disappears every three days<\/strong>.  Every twenty days the death toll equals the annual number of people killed in car wrecks.  The total death toll, more than a million Spaniards since 1985, is the equivalent of multiple Spanish provinces.<br \/>\n[&#8230;]<br \/>\nSpain&#8217;s abortion rate is a major contributor to the country&#8217;s worsening demographic problems.  The average number of children per family in Spain is only 1.3, well below the replacement rate of 2.1.  The downward pressures on population are being relieved by a <strong>massive influx of immigrants from Arab countries<\/strong> and South America, which are <strong>beginning to replace the native Spanish<\/strong>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>If the Islamists were smart, they would wait until they outnumbered the native Spanish and then take over the country without firing a shot or detonating a bomb.
