Report: China still harvesting organs from prisoners at a massive scale

China is still engaged in the widespread and systematic harvesting of organs

people whose views conflict with the ruling Chinese Communist Party are being murdered for their organs

publicly reported figures from hospitals across China to show what they claim is a massive discrepancy between official figures for the number of transplants carried out throughout the country

The (Communist Party) says the total number of legal transplants is about 10,000 per year

The report estimates that 60,000 to 100,000 organs are transplanted each year

According to the report, that gap is made up of executed prisoners, many of them prisoners of conscience locked up for their religious or political beliefs.

According to the report, thousands of people are being executed in China in secret

The report says detained Falun Gong practitioners were forced to have blood tests and medical exams. Those test results were placed in a database of living organ sources so quick organ matches could be made

"China has been perpetuating perhaps some of the most gruesome and egregious human rights violations against the Falun Gong and other prisoners of conscience, yet has hardly faced any criticism, let alone sanctions, for these abuses," said Representative Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, former chair of the U.S. House Foreign Affairs Committee

For decades, Chinese officials strenuously denied that they harvested organs from prisoners... ...Finally in 2005, officials admitted that the practice took place

CNN

This is scary. China is and has been arresting and locking away people for their religion or for having certain political opinions, this we know... But they've been going a few steps further - executing these prisoners just to harvest their organs (which the Chinese government has admitted to doing). Apparently this is a big business over there.

no bueno...

Talk about a deterrent to crime ...

Excuse me while I make a call to Trump. LOL

ETA: Kind'a garbled, but I think he said that's an alternative plan to the wall. Anyone know what that means? -grin

I believe I read something about organ harvesting a year or two ago in china. From what I remember, It isn't just happening in prisons, it's happening outside them to people who are in the religious minority.

This is depressing..

Horrific.But I'd bet although the harvesting takes place in China,they probably ship organs to wealthy customers abroad.

Socialism doesnt stop with taking your money to give to someone else.

Are you still eating Chinese food?

Remember the good old days when you only had to worry about cat mixed in your order?

the Chinese government is the worst enemy the Chinese people could ever ask for. I would love for someone to put a satellite over their head and simply give them free broadband unfiltered internet for the entire country..let the people become educated to their own government.

Years ago, the Chinese people didn't believe the government was censoring the internet..they were lead to the belief that the internet was this really shoddy thing that was down almost all the time. once they took down facebook, youtube, google, etc..they realized it wasn't just rumors..they were behind a firewall..
And now they are being told its for their own good...that anti-Chinese are trying to destroy the government, etc..and so many accept it as just what a developing nation has to do.

that's a scary government that can make people simply accept being kept in the dark publically.

Western Chinese food isn't anything like authentic Chinese food.
..
luckily

oh, incidentally:

if you found out you or your family member needed an organ...would you take a trip to Beijing, knowing what the price was?

Report: China still harvesting organs from prisoners at a massive scale

A communist state is a state that is governed by a single party adhering to some variation of Marxism–Leninism as its guiding ideology.[1] The term "Communist state" is used by Western historians, political scientists and media to refer to these countries. However, contrary to Western usage, these states do not describe themselves as "communist" nor do they claim to have achieved communism; they refer to themselves as Socialist states or Workers' states that are in the process of constructing socialism.[2][3][

So not only does the land,their earthly possessions, the homes, their cars, their BODIES belong to the STATE.

I hope the SOCIALISTS are paying attention to the road they are headed down.

You know that this is pretty ironic, right?

whats more....you are probably thinking, "yeah, but China does it on a whole different level". And you would be wrong. The only difference between Uncle Sam and the Red Dragon is aptitude and audience.

All governments are scary, but I can talk about anything as long as I don't threaten people.

hyperbole.
go on a proxy and you wont see much more than what you already see. a chinese person going online behind a proxy will see a bajillion new websites.

I have for awhile now been considering where to go for an extended stay (looking at a 10 year timeframe) in the far east and the internet is soo clamped down that it literally is the single reason I wrote it off. I can actually deal with the dodgy building codes, plumbing, food, air quality, etc..each issue has a (legal) solution. The internet though would require a illegal solution..and..well, consider this threads title..I wont be breaking laws in china and for my business I require internet..also for sanity.

Could someone offer them the constantly lying tongue of a well known evil, vile, should be prisoner?
