Kill one to save many. It's not that hard of a concept. Those who say that there is some contradiction in killing those who kill are refocusing their attention on the person who kills one versus the person who kills for a living.
Lillithu said it pretty well, actually.

Many people see abortion doctors as the ultimate terrorists, as they kill the defensless and make a considerable profit off of the murder of innocent babies...So, it would not be hypocritical in any sense. A murderer who commits murder, according to the Holy Texts, is to be sentenced to death for their crime. Many people see abortion doctors as serial killers that need to be brought face-to-face with justice. I used to be much more radical in this regard, but have softened my stance quite a bit as nonviolence is the best solution. But in today's world, taking up weapons to fight terrorists is all the rage.

Speaking of refocusing attention from one thing to another, why is so-called "partial-birth" abortion such a "serious issue"? They constitute only 0.05% of abortions in the U.S. and are pretty much only done when a woman's life/health is in danger or it is determined that there is something wrong with the foetus. Putting a ban on these procedures that doesn't even make an exception for the life of the mother is unconscionable. And I point out that it goes against what the president of your own denomination has said.

If you can't convince people your beliefs are right without resorting to terrorism, then you have a problem. This attack just strengethens the opposition, anyway. A stupid move. What if a pregnant mother was killed by the bomb?

Oh, I agree. But that is just like how we, the United States, resort to war and killing in the name of fighting terror. These people that bomb abortion clinics take the same stance as though they are standing up for the rights of the unborn. I agree that killing the terrorists is not the best solution, but people do believe in it...

 Seriously, when the foetus is wanted, it is viewed as a child and mourned when it is lost. When it is not wanted, it is not viewed as a child. That may not be rational but it is the situation. Pro-choicers who deny the validity of ever thinking of the foetus as a child are distorting the truth. And pro-lifers who insist that every foetus is a child are also distorting the truth.

Christians should have moved beyond the Life for a life mentality.
Killing is not a Christian virtue. I do not know of another western country where Abortion is such a violent issue. Most civilized countries accept the laws of their land with out killing.
