1. "world leader in finding brain-dead patients"
John ,   Be'er Sheva,Israel   (08.31.10)
Not surprising. We have lots of brain-dead people in politics and other administrative positions...
2. Israel needs to adopt the OPT OUT system...
Dorothy Friend ,   Tel Aviv   (08.31.10)
...for organ donation. It works well in the European countries (esp. Belgium) that Israelis schnor organs from!
3. revoke all psychiatry license
roli ,   miami beach, USA   (08.31.10)
and this dark episode in human history will also fall rotting from medicine. A big portion of catatonic "brain dead" are caused by aniti-psychotic administrative pharming. Much deadlier than burning plastic, and it's in every western water supply; because China's that way...
4. live donors
tsfatisha ,   tsfat   (09.01.10)
a woman in tsfat gave a kidney to a complete stranger a couple of weeks ago.... even live donation will be a thing of the past soon when people will be able to grow their own kidneys and other body parts from their own stem cells. :)
5. Many men have a useless organ, too small to transplant.
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (09.02.10)
6. Are we back to the question of organ trafficking???
Mikesailor ,   Miami, FL   (09.02.10)
7. Israel also leads the world in illegal organ trafficking
Moshe Cryan   (09.08.10)
Sadly Israelis are being arrested all over the world from Brazil, the USA and Ukraine for illegally trafficking in human organs, so I'm not sure this is something that should be celebrated; especially when it is claimed by some that they were coerced/forced into giving up their organs by unscrupulous Israeli organ traffickers.
