) JERUSALEM - Israel has admitted that in the 1990s, its forensic pathologists harvested organs from dead bodies, including Palestinians, without permission of their families.

The issue emerged with publication of an interview with the then-head of Israel's Abu Kabir forensic institute, Dr. Jehuda Hiss. The interview was conducted in 2000 by an American academic, who released it because of a huge controversy last summer over an allegation by a Swedish newspaper that Israel was killing Palestinians in order to harvest their organs. Israel hotly denied the charge.

Who would admit to it anyhow?

Ba2tards!

I agree

Like previous posters have posted;
If it ain't happenin' here, it's none of our business.

Imagine the field day the mainstream media would have with this story if the shoe were on the other foot! They would be wailing about the desicration of bodies and the unholy arab barbarians!

Who is it that believes all parts of the body must be buried together?

In the interview, Hiss described how his doctors would mask the removal of corneas from bodies. "We'd glue the eyelid shut," he said. "We wouldn't take corneas from families we knew would open the eyelids."

That's ghoulish. I have been hearing this rumor about Israel for several years now. I have also heard that the Israelis are organ harvesting in Iraq as well.

A BREAKDOWN OF UNITED STATES AID TO ISRAEL

Financial Aid

The Israeli government is the largest recipient of US financial aid in the world, receiving over one-third of total US aid to foreign countries4, even though Israel’s population comprises just .001% of the world’s population and has one the world’s higher per capita incomes.

*

Since 1949 the US has given Israel a total of $84,854,827,200. The interest costs born by US taxpayers on behalf of Israel are $49,937,000,000 – making the total amount of aid given to Israel since 1949 $134,791,507,200 (more than $134 billion).5
*

The total cost of this financial aid to US tax payers per Israeli is $23,240.
*

Since 1992, the US has offered Israel an additional $2 billion in loan guarantees every year.6
*

Nearly all past loans to Israel have been forgiven – leading Israel to claim that they have never defaulted on repayment of a US loan – with most loans made on the understanding that they would be forgiven before Israel was required to repay them.

A surprising number of Jews think that they need to be buried complete so that they can be resurrected [from the dead] whole, and that giving up an organ for transplantation would thus leave them without it when they are resurrected.

So much for the holy land aye?

This explains why they need to "harvest" they do not donate their own organs after death.

So much for the holy land aye?

It surprises me they would even perform organ transplants.

Maybe they think that since they are the chosen ones everyone else should give them their organs for transplant.

what a mad world we live in.

There was a movie made about this a few years ago.

What was it's name!
Hypocrites of an Illegal State?

so why does your party feel the need to meddle in other country's affairs???

Isnt it pathetic how america turns a blind eye to some attrocities and even funds them and trumps up charges of attrocities of any country we wish to attack. If only we had an honest media.........
