Actually a FATHER demanded the return of his son... but hey, lets not let a little thing like Father's rights weigh into this, after all this country doesn't believe in em anyway...
"SHENYANG, May 3, 2006 (LifeSiteNews.com) China's 30 years of brutal, forced abortion to implement its one-child policy and its subsequent devaluing of human life has led has led to a new atrocity. "
Sounds like a great place for NARAL to take up shop.
I support a father's rights, but in a totalitarian society like Castro's, I'm more than a little bit skeptical of the advertised motivations. If Elian's father truly wanted his son back, and it was not due solely to manipulation from the Maximum Leader (who stood to gain richly from this episode) then I'll take back my opinion.
Assume the story is true. Then assume that the Chinese regime is actually using falsified 'voluntary' donation forms by Falun Gong members for these organ removals.
Don't they realize they are simply proving one of two things:
1. The Falun Gong members are the most generous and charitable people in history and should be revered. or
2. This is such an obvious travesty that the regime will be despised throughout history when the truth surfaces.
Here's the thing: in Chinese culture (and in most eastern cultures), it is believed that you cannot enter the afterlife without your whole body. For that reason, there is virtually no voluntary organ donation in that country.
Hence the need for organs...
Here's more on the subject http://www.weeklystandard.com/Content/Public/Articles/000/000/012/160ymogj.asp
Reminds me of the movie `Hostel'. What a horror show.
OH My...thanks for the morning laugh. THAT is hilarious.
Dr. Mengele would be proud!
Lord, God, bring this horrid practice to a screeching halt, ASAP, PLEASE.
Cause those generating such horror to reap what they have sown sooner than later and may it vividly be diclosed to the public by unimpeachable sources. May the populace rise up in outrage and disgust.
From what experience and observsations do you assert that it sounds
"far fetched?"
I suppose you haven't read the TIENANMEN PAPERS either.

Excerpt from thread:
China harvesting inmates' organs, journalist says
A Chinese official was the first person to reveal that secret medical work was being done at the Liaoning Provincial Thrombosis Hospital of Integrated Chinese and Western Medicine, in Sujiatun, a suburb of Shenyang, the major city in northeastern China, he said.
Mr. Jin then said he found out that a large underground prison was built beneath the hospital and that members of the outlawed Falun Gong religious group were being held there. As many as 6,000 people are thought to be held prisoner at the underground facility, he said.
The hospital is harvesting the organs of the prisoners, including kidneys, livers, and eye parts, he said. The organs are then sold to people, from both China and abroad, who need medical organ transplants.

Japan Admits Dissecting WW II POWs
Live dissection of American POWs
When and where
How they died
The sentence
MacArthur let the mudrerers go free
UKUOKA, Japan "I could never again wear a white smock," says Dr. Toshio Tono, dressed in a white running jacket at his hospital and recalling events of 50 years ago. "It's because the prisoners thought that we were doctors, since they could see the white smocks, that they didn't struggle. They never dreamed they would be dissected."
The prisoners were eight American airmen, knocked out of the sky over southern Japan during the waning months of World War U, and then torn apart organ by organ while they were still alive.
What occurred here 50 years ago this month, at the anatomy department of Kyushu University, has been largely forgotten in Japan and is virtually unknown in the United States. American prisoners of war were subjected to horrific medical experiments. All of the prisoners died. Most of the physicians and asistants then did their best to hide the evidence of what they had done.

I usuallydon't worry a great deal about that. Most of us--at least in one or more areas . . . can stand to have a LOT of repetition before the import of the facts . . . and sometimes, just the raw facts of an issue or situation sink in to the degree really necessary to take wise action related thereto.
