The king said to have cut open the pregnant women was Menahem. These were cruel times and this episode might well have happened, but it is also good to remember that the Book of Kings (2 Kings) was written in the southern kingdom of Judah and that it consistently portrays the northern kings as more reprehensible that the kings of Judah.
