Virtually every industrialized country bans abortion after 15 weeks with exceptions of rape, incest, life of the mother. No reason to believe that the United States will be any different.

Hard disagree. Beyond what Travis mentions below there are big questions around how one interprets the implementation of "life of the mother." In Texas we're seeing stories of women with pregnancies that have zero viability being told to go home and wait until their life is at risk enough to clear the legal standard. Perhaps they exist, but I haven't heard stories out of Europe that boil down to 'go home and bleed more'.
Except that the opponents of abortion here think life starts at conception or a heartbeat. They want the national ban at 6 week--or even less--if they had their way. Every other industrial country doesn't go as far as the American anti-choice movement does in where they think the line should be. Probably because most other advanced countries aren't as religiously fever-pitched as our social conservative movement is. They ain't exactly building Ark Encounter exhibits in the UK or Germany or putting Ken Ham's lawyer in charge of parliament.
