While I agree in spirit, it should be understood that she should not be judged for an abortion after a traumatic event like rape. Sensible people agree that rape is acceptable for abortion.

Agree.
There is a cultural aspect here too. In 2006 (if i recall correctly) a yizidi woman and her sunni muslim husband were stoned to death when they visited her home village of sunnuni. Subsequently members of the muslims tribe detonated a very large car bomb in that same village. I dont see any way that this mixed kid, born out of a rape conducted by a muslim, has a reasonable shot at a decent life. The woman is going to have a hard enough time as it is.
ETA: I got the date wrong of course. I remember this story a little differently, but here is a general overview.
recap of the 2007 incident.
