    Israel has previously denied harvesting organs from dead Palestinians without the consent of families, calling such accusations “antisemitic”.

    Ever notice how anytime someone accuses Israel of something, Israel says it’s antisemitic?

    Their accusations mean nothing, because at this point the Israeli government just reflexively says it.

      Sounds like something an antisemite would say!

      /s

      You’re 100% correct.

      Blood libel is anti-Semitic.

      Just because you don’t understand these code phrases or dog whistles doesn’t mean anti-Semitism doesn’t exist.

        You’re right, but Israel is experiencing a boy who cried wolf scenario. They just aren’t trustworthy for anything

      Isn’t organ harvesting a really difficult process that needs to be handled quickly and shortly after death?

      I wouldn’t put it past Israel, given their behavior, but this seems initially implausible to me, as someone with limited knowledge of the medical process.

        Kidneys can last like a day and a half outside the body…

        But Israel is taking a lot of living prisoners, and returning bodies that are missing organs which coincidentally are almost always ones that are transplantable…

        It’s fine to be cautious, but what other rationale would you use for those organs being missing from returned bodies?

        I don’t think Israel has even given an alternative, but I may have missed it
