Reply #29: just love the demonizations don't you....just can't quit

blood is unaceptable for donation to Israel's blood banks because they're African

like i've written a good demonization always needs some kernal of truth. In israel donations to blood blanks is a very common practice, as its a way of contributing to the society, (i suspect most don't do that here on the DU...helping their fellow citizens).

Given that those from Africa have a very high percentage of HIV which obvious taints the blood and ignoring that would be incompetence of the highest degree, the medical establishment felt it was best not to use the blood from those that come from Africa

According to the health ministry, the prevalence of HIV infection among the Ethiopian immigrants was 50 times that in the Israeli population .....Dr Ben-David added: “No racism was involved because we also destroy the blood donated by other high-risk groups such as addicts and homosexual

but of course, its important to demonize the israelis and hint that they are all racists, hence the statement with partial information.....i'll catch them everytime, its too obvious, though one must wonder what exactly is the motivation of those that love to demonize israelis,......clearly its something
