More peace-loving... New York (CNN)The United Nations is looking into claims that ISIS -- already considered the wealthiest terrorist group on record -- may be harvesting organs from slain civilians and gaining financial benefits by trafficking the body parts, officials said Wednesday. But Britain's ambassador to the U.N., Mark Lyall Grant, said the issue has not been officially discussed. Grant said there was no proof or evidence of the claim made by Iraq's ambassador to the United Nations. The Iraqi ambassador, Mohamed Alhakim, on Tuesday urged the Security Council to investigate the deaths of 10 male and two female doctors in Mosul, Iraq. He said they were killed after refusing to remove organs from bodies. "Some of the bodies we found are mutilated ... that means some parts are missing," he told reporters, adding that there were openings in the back of the bodies where the kidneys would be located. "This is clearly something bigger than we think," Alhakim said. The U.N.'s Iraqi mission on Wednesday said Alhakim was not granting interviews. "At this point we're not in a position to corroborate what he says, but obviously any source of illegal financing of groups such as ISIS or other extremist groups is extremely worrisome," U.N. spokesman Stephane Dujarric told CNN. Nickolay Mladenov, the U.N. special envoy handling Iraq, said the organ theft claim would be investigated. "We have seen these reports as well," he said. "However, I do not want to hasten to confirm anything before we study them in greater detail." Mladenov said reports that the group "is using a human trafficking as part of its sources of income" have circulated for months. "I cannot speak to the extent of that issue until we finalize our analysis of the problem but if one looks at the broader picture, it is very clear that the brutality and the tactics that (ISIS) is using expand by the day." http://www.cnn.com/2015/02/18/middl...n=Feed: rss/cnn_topstories (RSS: Top Stories)
It seems like we are starting to give these guys "boogeyman" status. And it isn't a good thing. They're pieces of shit, not super villains
Not buying it at all. Harvested organs have to be kept near frozen and absolutely sterile They also must be rushed to the patient as quickly as possible.
I wonder who is buying them? The Associated Press July 24, 2009 at 7:41 PM, updated July 24, 2009 at 7:45 PM NEWARK -- Levy Izhak Rosenbaum of Brooklyn called himself a "matchmaker," but his business wasn't romance. Instead, authorities say, he brokered the sale of black-market kidneys, buying organs from vulnerable people from Israel for $10,000 and selling them to desperate patients in the U.S. for as much as $160,000. The alleged scheme exposed this week by an FBI sting, rocked the nation's transplant industry. If true, it would be the first documented case of organ trafficking in the U.S., transplant experts said today. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct...-JOLbUyZJCr3CCNoA&sig2=qmqkG8XSuLpBjl6xYTIq0A
