Comments on: Sweden’s Shameful Blood Libel http://blog.echurchwebsites.org.uk/2009/08/27/swedens-shameful-blood-libel/ Sun, 14 Mar 2010 18:04:01 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: lionpuppyheart http://blog.echurchwebsites.org.uk/2009/08/27/swedens-shameful-blood-libel/comment-page-1/#comment-2980 lionpuppyheart Sat, 29 Aug 2009 07:04:51 +0000 http://blog.echurchwebsites.org.uk/?p=3952#comment-2980 Sweden's blood libel of Israel gets worse The story of Sweden's blood libel against Israel gets uglier. Evidence mounts that Sweden actually funded the "researchers" who charged the IDF with selling body parts of Palestinians. That Sweden was the focal point for this kind of vicious libel is not surprising. But the more important point is that each month now, it seems, new lines are crossed in what is deemed acceptable commentary on Israel in the world press. The demonization of Israel that is breaking out all over closely resembles the demonization of Jews in Nazi Germany before World War 2. It is the path to making elimination more acceptable. Jews then, Israel now. The editor of the Swedish newspaper which published the blood libel admits there is no proof. In an editorial headlined "The week the world went crazy'', Aftonbladet chief editor Jan Helin wrote that the first article on the case published last Monday "lacked'' proof of any organ theft. The tabloid followed up its original story that claimed Israeli soldiers had snatched Palestinian youths to steal their organs with an interview with the family of an alleged victim. Two Aftonbladet reporters interviewed the mother and brother of Bilal Achmad Ghanem, a youth allegedly killed by Israeli troops 17 years ago when he was 19 on suspicion of being a ringleader in the first Palestinian uprising. It's a shame that the Swedish Foreign- Ministry fails to intervene in a case of blood-libels against Jews. This is reminiscent of Sweden's stand during World War II, when had failed to intervene as well. Sweden’s blood libel of Israel gets worse

This is not free speech. This is a hoax masquerading as a newspaper article and must be condemned by the justice department of the government of Sweden.
