Goes much deeper than that.

the painless killing of a patient suffering from an incurable and painful disease or in an irreversible coma. The practice is illegal in most countries.

How does it go deeper than that?

@ColdPenguin: I agree that if they're in such a bad condition then giving them a rest(Euthanasia) is alright.
But if it's made legal, it can be used as a conspiracy against so many people, you can't imagine. Tell them the patient is suffering so we killed 'em, wow, just like that. Like if it's genuine, it's a good thing but it can often be not.

@itjustbegan: Couldn't the same be said on the operating table for surgery?

Yes, but that's absolutely necessary in other cases and Euthanasia is not absolutely a necessity in any case but always, rather, a choice.
