Da www.antisemitism.org.il ecco un esempio di vignette dal mondo arabo, nelle quali gli israeliani vengono disegnati come ladri di organi dai corpi palestinesi. L'idea suggerita dal quotidiano svedese Aftonbladet ha fatto proseliti.

Arab World - Arab cartoons suggest Israel harvests organs

Arab cartoons suggest Israel harvests organs

Rumors of an international Jewish conspiracy to kidnap children and harvest their organs are the latest antisemitic canard to circulate in the Arab media.

Arab television and media outlets, including mainstream newspapers, satellite television networks and popular blogs, are spreading the accusations based on rumors of kidnappings in Algeria. The rumor, first reported by Algeria’s daily Al-Khabar, claimed that children are being kidnapped by marauding bands of Moroccans and Algerians, then sold to Israelis and American Jews, who purportedly harvest their organs for sale in Israel and the U.S.

Those rumors come on the heels of an article in a Swedish newspaper falsely accusing Israeli soldiers of harvesting organs from Palestinians. Similar rumors about alleged “organ harvesting” have appeared on the editorial pages of newspapers in Jordan, Oman, the United Arab Emirates and other countries in the Middle East, where editorial cartoonists have portrayed Israeli soldiers and Israel as cutting off the limbs of Palestinians or stealing organs for profit.

The rumors are reminiscent of the ancient blood-libel that was used for centuries to demonize the Jewish people.
