Justifiable Abortion?

Proposition, of which I am unconvinced: God sees all time, past, present, and future, as now. The future, therefore, already exists. The child in the womb is already guilty of whatever sins and crimes he or she will later commit.

If this were true, and if a method of travelling in time existed, would it be morally justifiable to visit the past in order, with or without risk to one's own safety, to kill or abort in the womb a future evil-doer, tyrant, or murderer, and so save millions of innocent lives, or even one innocent life?

And thus save the soul of the person killed?

And would you do it?
