Swedish Daily Publishes Second Article on "IDF Organ Harvesting"


[Ynet News] The Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet published a second article Sunday accusing the IDF of harvesting Palestinian organs. In the West Bank village of Imatin, 19-year-old Bilal Ahmad Ghanem was killed during a clash with Israeli soldiers in 1992. Aftonbladet published what it said was a photo of the body, which had a scar running from the neck down to the abdomen. Soldiers said the body had undergone an autopsy. The family, however, claims Bilal's organs had been stolen. The Israeli government said Sunday that it expects the Swedish government to officially condemn the Aftonbladet report. Prime Minister Netanyahu said, "We do not want the Swedish government to apologize, we want it to issue a condemnation."
