What's the Israeli equivalent to Planned Parenthood? Israel does have state-funded abortion, as well...Might be a kernel of truth.

You're right, though if we use abortion rate to legitimize that libelous, anti-Semitic accusation as you do, we have to make the accusation against most of Europe and the US, all of whom have higher abortion rates. Canada too. And Australia. So your accusation that Israel sells Palestinian organs doesn't hold water, it's a Jewhater canard. Muslims and others

How is it a "Jew hating canard" exactly? As you noted, it happens in most of the countries we tend to think of as civilized, including the US, which like Israel has a low and (and dropping) rate compared to Europe. There was that witch from planned parenthood on camera chortling about selling baby parts -- should I fly off the handle and call anti-American canard if someone mentions it? It happens in the US, and I stand by my comment that I wouldn't be surprised if it happens in Israel as well.

On a minor, I was referring to Israel, not Jews. And the Syrian in question may well be anti-Israel, but as Arabs are Semitic, I don't know if his claims, true or otherwise, would quite qualify as anti-Semitic. Frankly, the term is tossed around far too lightly theae days.
