Israel Offered Nuclear Weapons To South Africa’s Apartheid Regime

Israel Accused Of Killing Palestinians To Use Their Organs.

Israel has admitted pathologists harvested organs from dead Palestinians, and others, without the consent of their families, a practice it said ended in the 1990s.
The admission, by the former head of the country’s forensic institute, followed a furious row prompted by a Swedish newspaper reporting that Israel was killing Palestinians in order to use their organs, a charge that Israel denied and called “antisemitic”.

Iran’s state-run Press TV reported the story, illustrated with photographs of dead or badly injured Palestinians.
Ahmed Tibi, an Israeli Arab MP, said the report incriminated the Israeli army.
The story emerged in an interview with Dr Yehuda Hiss, former head of the Abu Kabir forensic institute near Tel Aviv.

The interview was conducted in 2000 by an American academic who released it because of the row between Israel and Sweden over a report in the Stockholm newspaper Aftonbladet.
Aftonbladet quoted Palestinians as saying young men from the West Bank and Gaza Strip had been seized by the Israeli forces and their bodies returned to their families with missing organs.

Israel demanded that Sweden condemn the Aftonbladet article, calling it an antisemitic “blood libel”.
Stockholm refused, saying that to do so would violate freedom of speech in the country.
Israel’s health ministry said all harvesting was now done with permission.

The Moors Murders.

When Myra Hindley died in a Suffolk prison in 2002, no undertaker in the county would handle her body and several crematoria refused to incinerate her corpse.
The hospital in which the 60 year-old spent her last days insisted on destroying her bedding.
During 1963 – 1965, Myra Hindley and her lover Ian Brady went on their ghastly killing spree.

Over that two-year period, the couple snatched five young people off streets of Greater Manchester and subjected them to rape and torture, before shoving their bodies into crude graves on the South Pennines.
Acres of print have been spent in trying to analyse just how a bright typist from a working-class suburb of Manchester turned into a sadistic killer.
The ‘Moors Murders’ became a symbol for the terrible evil of which men, and women, are capable of.

The Sand Creek Massacre.

Indians fighting back to defend their people and protect their homelands provided ample justification for American forces to kill any Indians on the frontier, even peaceful ones.
On November 29, 1864, a former Methodist minister, John Chivington, led a surprise attack on peaceful Cheyennes and Arapahos on their reservation at Sand Creek in southeastern Colorado.

His force consisted of 700 men, mainly volunteers in the First and Third Colorado Regiments.
Plied with too much liquor the night before, Chivington and his men boasted that they were going to kill Indians.
Once a missionary to Wyandot Indians in Kansas, Chivington declared, “Damn any man who sympathises with Indians, I have come to kill Indians, and believe it is right and honourable to use any means under God’s heavens to kill Indians”.

That fateful cold morning, Chivington led his men against 200 Cheyennes and Arapahos.
Cheyenne Chief Black Kettle had tied an American flag to his lodge pole as he was instructed, to indicate his village was at peace.
When Chivington ordered the attack, Black Kettle tied a white flag beneath the American flag, calling to his people that the soldiers would not kill them.
As many as 160 were massacred, mostly women and children.

Victory At Trafalgar.

On the 21st October 1805, Lord Nelson was shot dead from the mizzen mast of the French ship Redoutable, which was locked in battle with HMS Victory at Trafalgar.
In those few hours our navy secured Britain for good from an invasion by 180,000 French troops led by Napoleon.
Had victory not been ours, Britain might now be part of France.

Israel Offered Nuclear Weapons To South Africa’s Apartheid Regime.

Secret South African documents reveal that Israel offered to sell nuclear warheads to the apartheid regime, providing the first official documentary evidence of the state’s possession of nuclear weapons.
The top secret minutes of meetings between senior officials from the two countries in 1975 show that South Africa’s defence minister, PW Botha, asked for the warheads and Shimon Peres, then Israel’s defence minister, responded by offering them in three sizes.
The two men also signed a broad-ranging agreement governing military ties between the two countries that included a clause declaring that “the very existence of this agreement” was to remain secret.
