Four Palestinian women who had the sperm of their husbands smuggled out of Israeli jails reportedly are pregnant.

Dr. Salim Abu Khaizaran, a fertlity doctor at the Razan Medical Center in the West Bank city of Nablus, said Thursday that other insemination attempts had failed, the Palestinian Maan news agency reported.

"We don't intervene and ask how they smuggled sperm from prison and get it to Nablus," Khaizaran said at a news conference, according to Ma'an. "There are many failed attempts because the sperm die and so prisoners have to keep trying until it works."

When I was young we had an AI (Artificial Insemination) tech come to the farm and do the necessary job. He had the bull semen in a nitrogen container and used a long plastic straw with a bulb on the end to release the semen in the cow.

Sometime it worked, some times we had to call him back the next month to do it again.

I’m still curious as too how it was smuggled out the prison..

Their mouths are sealed.

Wanna bet how many little Palestinians are going to look like Dr. Salim Abu Khaizaran? “Trust me. This is the only way it will work...”

While nothing Muslims do will ever surprise me, I’m still curious as too how it was smuggled out the prison..

It probably wasn't. Post 23 gives the most likely scenario.

(Rumors about Israeli, uh, intervention ought to kill off demand for these products though, lol.)

Well, I am talking mid to late 70s in Spain, not exactly the scientific belly button of the world. The farm was a couple of hours drive from Bivar and the ruins of Ruy Diaz's castle! Probably the "manager" was the only one who could read and write at the farm, so I guess the instructions were too complicated for him.

Those were fun times, spending the summer at the farm. A year or two later, my grandfather bought a beautiful red and white Holstein bull. He paid a fortune for it, but planned to make a killing selling red and white bulls. I tried to explain to him that red was a sex-linked chromosome and he could not get a red bull with a black cow... of course I was told I didn't know what I was talking about. So, that summer we used to bet when the forelegs of a calf were sticking out, just prior to birth. If I saw red, I always waged it was a female, and whoever was around would claim male, just to prove the "city girl" wrong. I was right 100% of the times. Oh, what fun we had!
