That Swedish organ theft blood libel that went viral in the Arab world – legitimate because the obsessive anti-Zionist gumshoe who wrote it was “just asking questions.” His question-filled investigation of the Chinese government, which admits that it actually does harvest prisoner organs, is presumably still pending. Because he doesn’t seem to have written this one up yet:
China has launched a national organ donation system to try to reduce its dependence on body parts harvested from executed prisoners, who make up the majority of donors, state media reported Wednesday. Organ transplantation in China has long been criticized as profit-driven and unethical, with critics arguing death row inmates may feel pressured to become donors, violating personal, religious or cultural beliefs… But in a rare disclosure about an industry often criticized for being opaque, the China Daily newspaper said Wednesday that more than 65 percent of organ donors come from death row. Though the figure could not be confirmed with the government, Vice Health Minister Huang Jiefu has publicly acknowledged in recent years that most organs used for transplants are taken from executed prisoners, though only with prior consent.
Of course there’s no millennia-old racist trope – enshrined in European religious and literary tradition – about how the Chinese steal human organs. So that wouldn’t be as much fun to write.
At times like this I like to remember the words of Syrian Minister, Warwick PhD, Nobel Peace Prize nominee, and antisemitic whack job Dr. Bouthaina Shaaban: “In 2003, a medical conference showed that Israel is the only country in the world in which the medical profession does not condemn stealing human organs and does not act against those involved in such a crime.” Although if there actually was an international human rights conference about organ theft there’s no doubt Israel would come in for unremitting condemnation. And that China wouldn’t come up at all.
