Stealing Palestinian Bodies, 'Israel's' additional Crime
27/08/2009
In 1995, Avishai Raviv from the "Israeli" Secret Service GSS (Shin-Bet, Shabak) helped to establish the terrorist Jewish, Zionist and fascist youth organization “Eyal” for hunting the Palestinians in the occupied territories. He went to the village of Halhoul near Hebron together with IDF, to hunt (not to search or arrest him, BUT To HUNT) a peace activists from Fatah, Salman Hussein Al-Zamaareh. Since then, and particularly after the signing of the Oslo agreement, the improper behavior of the criminal IDF, stealing bodies and kidnapping injured Palestinians from emergency wards for the purpose of butchering them and cutting their organs at Abu Kabir did not end.
However, unveiling these Zionist-"Israeli" unjust crimes was finally bravely done."Our sons are plundered for their organs", is a report that was published last week in Aftonbladet, Sweden’s leading tabloid, which implies a link between those charges and the recent arrest in the US of an American Jew for illicit organ trafficking, and that accused "Israeli" forces of stealing the organs from Palestinian men after killing them, a charge "Israel" has denied.
Writer Donald Bostrom, a Swedish freelance journalist, based the story on testimony from Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza, whom he identified only by their first names, who lost their loved ones in 1992 during the first Palestinian uprising. He said he was not anti-Semitic and insisted that what he had written was true. In fact, he has stated that he first raised the issue in his 2001 book titled Inshallah: The conflict between "Israel" and Palestine, adding that at the time there was no reaction from the "Israeli" government.
Bostrom's story sheds light on the case of Bilal Ahmed Ghanem, a 19-year-old Palestinian man, who was shot dead in 1992 by "Israeli" forces in the West Bank village of Imatin. Bostrom, who witnessed the man's killing, said Ghanem's body was abducted following the shooting and was returned at midnight- during an imposed curfew- several days later by the "Israeli" military with a cut from the stomach to the neck that had been stitched up.
“All those things are actually true and happened. It was the middle of the night. The soldiers caused an electrical power outage in the entire village. Bilal was returned in a black bag; he had no teeth. The body was stitched from the neck all the way down to the abdomen," the Swedish newspaper quoted Bilal's mother as saying.
After that incident, at least 20 Palestinian families told Bostrom that they suspected the "Israeli" military had taken the organs of their sons after they had been killed by "Israeli" forces and their bodies had been taken away.
Bostrom's article has sparked outrage and made headlines in "Israel", where some commentators compared it to medieval accusations that Jews killed Christian children for their blood. Daniel Seaman, who heads 'Israel's' government press office, said the article played on "vile anti-Semitic themes".
The article was illustrated with a photograph of a dead Palestinian man with a line of surgical stitches running the length of his torso, as well as pictures of stone-throwing youths and Levy Izhak Rosenbaum, a New York resident arrested in an FBI sting last month and charged with plotting to buy a kidney from an "Israeli" and sell it to an American patient for $160,000.
The Swedish government has refused to apologize for the article saying the country's press freedom prevents it from intervening. For its part, the newspaper commented on its story, acknowledging that it had no proof of any organ theft but argued that the story deserved publication because of the issues it raised.
