Sam2 -“Organ donations after death should be a Chiyuv because of Pikuach Nefesh.”

I could only see this in a place where there are mostly Jews. I don’t even know if this applies in Israel! (That it’s mostly Jews.)

“And in a case where there is no Jew in need of a kidney or lung, it is still a Chiyuv of Pikuach Nefesh Mishum Eivah.”

There is No Eivah because we don’t donate to Jews or anyone else.

“Even now, many countries won’t send organs to Israel because too many Jews aren’t donors. It’s a complete Pikuach Nefesh. Hands down.”

I never did an assessment -why there aren’t enough organs in Israel, but let’s say for argument sake you’re right -I have a simple solution for them. – Instead of taking all these terrorists and locking them up – how about instituing the death penalty?

If you did that -there would be more than enough organs to go around! Plus, you could lower the taxes for the Israeli public.

It’s funny, I haven’t heard one lib complain how the Israeli gov. is wasting tax money on terrorists, but they don’t stop complaining about some of the Jews in Kollel whom take $ from the gov.!
