---- March 20, 2010 . . At first, most of the educated public
in the democratic world would respond with a resounding "no".
While many of us who live in Israel and those of us who had actually
been in Haiti would choose not to dignify the question with an
answer.
I was sitting
at an outdoor restaurant yesterday in Ra'anana, a sleepy, northern
suburb of Tel Aviv with my 9-year-old daughter. We had just participated
in the Ra'anana 3k Annual Fun Race when we sat down to have lunch.
Next to us
were a couple from Holland who had just made Aliya (immigrated)
to Israel. They spoke of the severe anti-Semitism in Holland,
dating back to the Nazi occupied days of Anne Frank. They spoke
about libelous TV and newspaper reports about the IDF stealing
and harvesting human organs while on an humanitarian search, rescue
and medical mission to Haiti.
My mouth opened,
my teeth clenched and I looked away in deep anger.
First, I was
deeply upset at those people who created such lies, blood libels
against the Israel, the Jewish nation. Then, with pure logic and
reason kicking in, I became upset at the Israel Ministry of Foreign
Affairs and the Israel Prime Minister's Office for failing to
inform me of these reports as I sat in the Israel
Defense Forces (IDF) Field Hospital getting out news releases
for Israel Flying
Aid, the IDF and the many good doctors and nurses who were
working through searing heat and humidity without break to save
lives.
Had
I been notified that there were vicious, false reports of
human organs being stolen, harvested by the IDF, I would
have called for a news conference, had the media observe
24/7 the operations taking place and had the media search
the entire base for those "missing organs" taken
from the Haitians.
I was the
only professional Israeli media consultant at the IDF Field Hospital
in Haiti. And I thought that I truly had very little work to do
as the mainstream media there had already realized that Israel
had the only advanced field hospital up and running. But if I
had been notified that there were vicious, false reports of human
organs being stolen, harvested by the IDF, I would have called
for a news conference, had the media observe 24/7 the operations
taking place and had the media search the entire base for those
"missing organs" taken from the Haitians.
So do I place
my anger on those who make Israel appear like a bunch of barbarian
thugs or do I address the lack of professional PR coming out of
Israel?
As for Israel
PR, we do not have the money nor the proper staffing of experienced
public relations and public affairs professionals in our government.
So I sit here inside my office on a perfectly sunny day in Israel
at my computer. As do many other volunteers in Israel, the US,
the UK, France and many other countries who give of their expertise,
valuable time and dedication to defend Israel's reputation.
For public affairs has a direct effect on life on the ground.
Israel doctors
and nurses worked day and night, fighting exhaustion, to treat
Haitians and keep them alive.
They had very
little time for themselves except to grab some sleep when they
were able.
But given
knowledge of these reports about the IDF stealing and harvesting
organs from the crying and bleeding children in Haiti, they may
have started to find some organs - "brains" - for those
from Iran, Syria, Hamas and Islamic Jihad. And some anti-Semites
in the US for whom I will not all mention as that is exactly what
they are seeking - perverted attention.
The Israel doctors, nurses and medics in Haiti were struggling
just to stay awake as they treated a river of humanity which came
for help. While outside the IDF Field Hospital elite IDF search
and rescue team with both sophisticated equipment and trained
dogs searched for the living among the dust and rubble.
So one must
address questions as to did the IDF steal or harvest organs in
Haiti - for most of the public truly does not know and goes by
whatever media they see or hear - whether it be the New York
Times, CNN, FOX News, BBC, AP, Reuters or the amateurs who
upload to Twitter, YouTube and Facebook.
If the IDF
did try to steal or harvest organs from those in Haiti - where
would they have placed them?
In the kitchen's
refrigerators? Don't think so, there was just enough food for
ourselves there.
How about
in their caravans? We had no caravans, just small two man tents.
Maybe the
stolen human organs were placed in styrofoam picnic baskets? Not
there either - it was just too hot and how would they get those
picnic baskets to aircrafts? The airport in Port-Au-Prince was
closed except for US military traffic.
Was the US
military transporting stolen human organs from Haiti?
Starts to
get pretty absurd, yes.
But then again, Iran President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad denies that
there was ever a holocaust!
The conspiracy
theories have been reported as fact by Iran and Arab media, including
Press TV, a state-funded Iranian TV news channel, and leading
pan-Arab satellite news networks Al Jazeera and Al-Arabiya. In
addition, newspapers in Jordan, Oman, Qatar and other Arab countries
published series of editorial cartoons that depicted Israelis
as vicious butchers who were gleefully cutting off the body parts
of Arabs and trading in Palestinians' organs.
There is not
one, not one shred of evidence of any kind that Israel attempted
to or stole anything in Haiti. Israel only gave one thing - its
humanitarian heart.
Ya see, the
problem here is that this blood libel usually comes from Iran.
And the Iranians were not in Haiti - they were too busy making
nuclear weapons to destroy every democracy with.
For those
in the Iran government - did they seek to steal or harvest organs
from those who protest for freedom in Iran? Perhaps yes and how
about UK Liberal Democrat Jenny Tonge and fake US black activist
(if the man was real why was he not in Haiti helping his brothers?)
T. West have they made any attempt to steal certain organs?
Yes, these
organs are called "brains".
The allegations
the T. West video spread globally in less than a day a
phenomenon that the ADL states: "demonstrates both the power
of the Internet to spread disinformation, and the ability of any
individual to disseminate the Big Lie with ease."
"We have
entered a new era where any individual can perpetuate a lie and
spread it globally from the confines of his home," said Abraham
H. Foxman, ADL National Director. "The video-sharing
technology enables one person to pick up something that is completely
wrong and to push it out as fact."
"T. West"
is an online moniker used by Theautries West, a mentally disturbed
Seattle resident who has posted a number of anti-Israel and anti-Semitic
videos on YouTube. Here
is the contact information for Theautries West if you care to
ask him a few questions: West, Theautries westthea@aol.com

Looking at Iran we must ask: "what kind of government denies
freedom, basic human rights, murders protesters, denies free speech,
denies the Holocaust and sees every Jew and Christian as an Infidel
for which they are ordered to murder by the Quran?"
So Iran gets
the let's bash Israel PR ball rolling with its oil money. T. West,
paid by Iran and desperately seeking attention (must have been
deprived as a child) makes a YouTube video and then Jenny Tonge
states that the "media" is confirming that the IDF is
stealing organs from patients in Haiti!
There
is not one, not one shred of evidence of any kind that Israel
attempted to or stole anything in Haiti. Israel only gave
one thing - its humanitarian heart.
Why would
Israel travel half way around the world on an humanitarian mission
risking the lives of their search, rescue and medical teams to
steal human organs in Haiti when they could just take them out
of Gaza?
Ooops, I forgot. The IDF does not control Gaza, Hamas does. Then
maybe the reason why Hamas has built tunnels into Egypt was to
smuggle out human organs for sale in Syria or Iran?
If this story
gets you angry, just get upset at Israel Prime Minister Benjamin
"Bibi" Netanyahu for not having enough experienced PR
professionals in his expansive government to get the facts out
in real time.
And should
you have any doubt of the details of the above news story, then
just come over to my home and open the refrigerator door.
Maybe you
will find a thousand livers, kidneys and hearts waiting to be
sold on eBay.
