Swedish paper's organ harvesting article draws Israeli outrage

Is it my imagination or does the reader come away thinking there may be something to Donald Bostrom's slime, and that he's really being written off too quickly, that he's even the victim here? This strikes me as a textbook case of the weakness of the MSM's faux-evenhandedness. There can be no evenhanded and plain factual recounting of a lie juxtaposed with the truth. Of course, they don't always do this. The press manages to provide a slant to even a supposed factual article when their heart is in it.

Meantime, the Swedish Government is distancing itself from its Israeli embassy's denunciation of the article, and NGO Monitor is noting that with the massive government-funded demonization of Israelis it was only a matter of time before we started seeing material like this in the mainstream: Swedish Anti-Semites Dig Up a Blood Libel

It might be true. After all, I saw photos of the organ donors in the story. They couldn't fake those, could they?

To the previous commenter: the photo was obviously of an autopsied person, but who knows what remained within the sewn-up body? A viewer will "see" what it is suggested that he see. Don't believe what you read in the tabloids -- any of them.

Sorry, David, I guess my sarcasm was a bit too subtle. Tabloids? I don't even believe half of what I read in the New York Times...

Voice your protest! STOP the Blood Libel!
Write to Swedish Embassy (in Canada: sweden.ottawa@foreign.ministry.se )
or contact the members of Swedish Parliament ( http://www.sweden.gov.se/sb/d/2070 ).
