I’m aware of the claims. The claim the commenter made was that they took the bodies of the two in the story for this purpose, which is baseless.
There’s a big difference from “there are occurrences of a thing happening” vs. “the thing is happening right now, right here, to these people.”
If you think every odd body is getting hauled off for organ harvesting, you’re being a little nuts. It was stated to invoke an emotional response, making a bad an evil situation seem more bad and more evil without any evidence. Just internet hatemongering shock value that doesn’t do any good and just distracts from the issue.
Plenty of reasons to hate Israel, but my toast that burnt this morning can’t be blamed on them. Has Israel burnt toast? Most likely. Does israel have systematic policies in place, or an unspoken culture, regarding burnt toast? Maybe; it should probably be investigated. Did they burn my toast this morning? I have no basis to suspect that, but I could go around yelling about it and people might even agree because there are lots of proven things to hate Israel for already and it’s the internet…
But yes, it certainly is maxed; which makes this behavior even weirder to me.
Maybe @answerplease77@lemmy.world was referring to:
In 2009, an interview with Dr. Yehuda Hiss—former head of the Abu Kabir Forensic Institute—was leaked. Recorded in 2000 by Nancy Scheper-Hughes—professor of anthropology at the University of California-Berkeley—Hiss said that pathologists at the institute took skin, corneas, bones and heart valves from the bodies of Israeli citizens, Israeli soldiers, Palestinians and immigrants, often without consent from the deceased’s family.
Things are bad enough without such baseless claims.

hatemongering implies reasons to hate aren’t maxed…

Weirdest strawman ever…
It’s called an analogy but good try
Oh, so the two surrendering dead guys are burnt toast. Got it.
Guess who has the world’s largest skin bank, but also a very low rate of donors?
