Il primo articolo (sul commercio di organi dei prigionieri uccisi (anche apposta?) dall'ISIS per fare trapianti su terzi acquirenti) in rete esistono molti articoli ma sostanzialmente non esiste LA prova indiscutibile.
Il secondo articolo ée più attendibile e tratta dei rimpatri dall'Europa e non in Israele in quest'anno a seguito del riemergente o mai sopito antisemitismo che circola specialmente in Francia.

Islamic State (ISIS) Fatwa Authorizes Harvesting Body Parts from ‘Infidels’
28
December 2015
According
to a religious ruling, or fatwa, issued by Islamic State scholars, the
harvesting of organs from live victims in order to save the lives of Muslims is
licit, opening the question of whether ISIS is engaging in the trafficking of
human body parts.
The fatwa is contained in a
recently released document obtained by U.S. special forces in a raid in eastern
Syria last May. According to the ruling, the removal of organs from a living
captive to save a Muslim’s life is permitted, even if the operation kills the
captive.
A U.S. government translation of the document has been posted online.
The ruling, handed down by from the Islamic State’s Research and Fatwa Committee, answers the query whether it is permissible “to take the captured apostate’s body organs and give them to Muslims who are in need of them.” Citing various Islamic texts and the opinions of Islamic scholars, the fatwa states that “the notion that transplanting healthy organs into a Muslim person’s body in order to save the latter’s life or replace a damaged organ with it is permissible.”
The principle logic behind the ruling is the belief that whereas the life of a Muslim is sacrosanct, “the apostate’s life and organs don’t have to be respected and can be taken with impunity.”
Though the document does not define the term “apostate,” it is often taken to mean not only a convert from Islam, but anyone not embracing the Muslim religion. Such has been the interpretation of U.S. government officials.
The document furnishes “a religious justification for harnessing the organs of what they call infidels,” said Brett McGurk, President Barack Obama’s Special Presidential Envoy for the Global Coalition to Counter ISIL.
According to McGurk, the May raid in Syria brought in seven terabytes of data stored on computer hard drives, thumb drives, CDs, DVDs and papers, among which was the fatwa on organ harvesting.
Earlier this year, Mohamed Alhakim, Iraq’s ambassador to the United Nations, urged the UN Security Council to examine accusations of organ removal by the Islamic State, noting that corpses bearing surgical incisions and missing kidneys had been uncovered in mass graves in Iraq.
“We have bodies. Come and examine them,” Alhakim said. “It is clear they are missing certain parts.”
Alhakim also claimed that ISIS militants had executed several doctors in Mosul for refusing to take part in organ harvesting.
The recent revelations of Islamic State organ harvesting follow upon news of another similar fatwa authorizing ISIS militants to kill infants born with Down syndrome or congenital birth defects.
According to the Iraqi activist blog Mosul Eye, a Saudi sharia judge named Abu Said Aljazrawi ruled that ISIS followers are authorized to the newborns with disabilities, and that at least 38 children had already been executed by lethal injection or suffocation.
In a post on the Mosul Eye Facebook page, the group claimed that any child with a disability is now at risk of being killed, and released a brief video showing disabled children.

Nearly 30,000 Jews immigrated to Israel in 2015
25 December 2015
Nearly thirty thousand Jews moved to Israel in 2015,
up from 26,500 last year, the Jewish Agency for Israel announced on Thursday.
Aliya has been on the rise in recent years, driven largely by the flow of immigrants from France and Ukraine, with this year’s increase following last year’s thirty two percent surge in newcomers, which was at the time characterized by Jewish Agency chairman Natan Sharansky as “a year of record-breaking aliya.”
France became the leading source of immigrants for the first time last year with almost 7,000, double the number from 2013. This year’s numbers mark a ten percent increase over last year, however, with 7,900 French Jews relocating here.
“Each has his or her reason, including the economic crisis, personal security, terrorist attacks, and, in some places and times, an anti-Jewish mood,” agency spokesman Yigal Palmor said.
Though not final, the immigration figure falls short of Jewish Agency head Natan Sharansky’s prediction after the kosher market attack following the Charlie Hebdo shootings in January that more than 10,000 French Jews would move to Israel this year.
The shortfall may be accounted for by difficulties white collar immigrants face in obtaining employment here, said Dr. Dov Maimon, senior fellow at the Jerusalem-based Jewish People Policy Institute.
“Dozen of thousands of french Jews have opened files at Jafi and many more investigate Aliyah. Unfortunately the lack of effort to let them work in their professional training in Israel make them reluctant to take the risk of Aliyah,” he said.
“We are are losing an historical opportunity to welcome a very educated aliya because of short term political calculations and inability to oppose the professional [associations]. Netanyahu has invited the french Jews to join the Zionist adventure but didn’t deliver the promises he [made to] them to ease the recognition of diplomas, and ease their relocation (such as decrease taxation to french Jewish companies who want to relocate and create jobs in Israel for their fellow brethren).”
The issue has aroused such anger that this week French Jewish lawmaker Meyer Habib threatened that he would call on French Jews not to make aliya to Israel if the state does not fully recognize French academic degrees.
“If there is no tangible progress on the matter within three months, I will recommend to French Jews to postpone or cancel their aliya,” he said.
According to Palmor, wider Jewish immigration to Israel reached a 15-year high in 2015, with around 30,000 new arrivals. He noted a high number of arrivals from economically troubled Russia and civil war-torn Ukraine According to data from the Ministry of Absorption, Ukrainian aliyah, largely driven by a Russian-backed civil war and concomitant economic malaise, rose by eleven percent. As of mid-December 6953 Ukrainians have arrived, up from 5921 last year.
“I would guess that the majority of the Olim from Ukraine are coming from the Donbass region which is under occupation and attack by the Russian/separatist forces. In general we see Aliyah as the inalienable right of every Jew and a positive step. The Aliyah of approximately 7,000 Jews from Ukraine is approximately 2% of the total Jewish population in Ukraine,” said Yaakov Dov Bleich, the country’s American born Chief Rabbi.
As for emigration, while data for 2014-2015 was not available, a spokeswoman for the Central Bureau of Statistics stated that in 2013 “16,200 Israeli citizens went abroad and stayed abroad more than one year” while “8,900 Israeli citizens came back to Israel after spending more than one year abroad.”
Also this week the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews announced that it would expand its own aliyah program, which has been a bone of contention between it and its former partners at the Jewish Agency.
“Since launching its aliyah program in December 2014, The Fellowship has brought more than 2,000 olim to Israel, mostly from Ukraine but also from France, Moldova, the Spanish North African city of Mellila, Turkey, Uruguay, Venezuela, and an unnamed Arab country,” the group said in a statement.
“In 2016, due to rising global anti-Semitism and violence, The Fellowship aims to expand its aliyah activities worldwide within countries, as well as Spain, Russia and beyond, and double the number of new olim it brings to Israel to 4,000.”
