Organ Trafficking in South Africa / Durban 2010

A VERY PROFITABLE HOSPITAL COMPANY

Dr Richard Friedland runs hospital company Netcare. His company is very profitable, "growing annual profits at 20%-plus." (Alec Hogg, Netcare interim results: Richard Friedland - group CEO, Netcare, MoneyWeb, 17 May 2010)

WHICH LIKES TO DO BUSINESS IN "DEVELOPING COUNTRIES"

Dr. Friedland's company is "an emerging-market player". (Richard Friedland cited in Alec Hogg, Netcare interim results: Richard Friedland - group CEO, Netcare, MoneyWeb, 17 May 2010)

An "emerging market" is "A foreign economy that is developing in response to the spread of capitalism and has created its own stock market." (http://www.answers.com/topic/emerging-markets)

"Own stock market"?

Not quite: "The invention of the stock exchange is also credited to Jewish financial talent. In Berlin, Paris, London, Frankfort and Hamburg, Jews were in control of the first stock exchanges, while Venice and Genoa were openly referred to in the talk of the day as "Jew cities" where great trading and banking facilities might be found". (Henry Ford, The International Jew - The World's Foremost Problem, The Dearborn Publishing Company, 1920, p 16)

Cities like Johannesburg, South Africa.

A GOOD PLACE FOR PROFITS

"Ja, look, most of the profits are still coming from South Africa. The margins are still here." (David Shapiro cited in Alec Hogg, Netcare interim results: Richard Friedland - group CEO, Netcare, MoneyWeb, 17 May 2010)

"Know that wherever there is money there are Jews". (Montesquieu cited in Raphael Patai, The Jewish Mind, Wayne State University Press, 1996, p 252)

BUT THERE IS DANGER

"it's a group you must watch carefully." (David Shapiro cited in Alec Hogg, Netcare interim results: Richard Friedland - group CEO, Netcare, MoneyWeb, 17 May 2010)

It seems the public prosecutor's office took this advice, because "South Africa's biggest private hospital group was on Wednesday charged in connection with an alleged organ trafficking syndicate in which people's kidneys were transplanted to wealthy Israelis." (David Smith, Hospitals in South Africa charged over kidney transplant trafficking, Guardian, 16 Sep 2010) "most of the profits are still coming from South Africa. The margins are still here." (David Shapiro cited in Alec Hogg, Netcare interim results: Richard Friedland - group CEO, Netcare, MoneyWeb, 17 May 2010)

Well, what kind of margins are we talking about? "Levy Izhak Rosenbaum is a "matchmaker", and bought organs for $10 000 from connected people in Israel, reselling these items for $160 000 in the United States." (Donald Boström, Våra söner plundras på sina organ, Aftonbladet, 17 Aug 2009) "Know that wherever there is money there are Jews". (Montesquieu cited in Raphael Patai, The Jewish Mind, Wayne State University Press, 1996, p 252)

"Mr. Rosenbaum had arranged "quite a lot" of matches, and had never failed to satisfy a request." (Donald Boström, Våra söner plundras på sina organ, Aftonbladet, 17 Aug 2009)

A MOUNTAIN OF MONEY

"Netcare, which also runs hospitals in Britain, allegedly made more than 22m rand (£2m) from the scam, South Africa's Mercury newspaper said." (David Smith, Hospitals in South Africa charged over kidney transplant trafficking, Guardian, 16 Sep 2010) "most of the profits are still coming from South Africa." (David Shapiro cited in Alec Hogg, Netcare interim results: Richard Friedland - group CEO, Netcare, MoneyWeb, 17 May 2010)

MASSIVE CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE

"Prosecutors say more than 100 illegal operations were conducted at a Netcare hospital in Durban between 2001 and 2003." "The Times of South Africa cited a charge sheet that included 109 counts of fraud and serious assault, as well as forgery and organised crime." (David Smith, Hospitals in South Africa charged over kidney transplant trafficking, Guardian, 16 Sep 2010) "the Jews who arrived would like to stay, but they were repugnant to the Inferior Magistrates (with their customary usury and deceitful trading with Christians)." (Peter Stuyvesant cited in Oscar Reiss, The Jews in Colonial America, McFarland, 2004, p 103)

"It's a group you must watch carefully." (David Shapiro cited in Alec Hogg, Netcare interim results: Richard Friedland - group CEO, Netcare, MoneyWeb, 17 May 2010)

RUN EFFICIENTLY -- MINIMIZING COST OF MATERIALS

""Israeli citizens in need of kidney transplants would be brought to South Africa for transplants at St Augustine's hospital," the charge sheet read. "They paid kidney suppliers for these operations." The kidneys "were initially sourced from Israeli citizens, but later Romanian and Brazilian citizens were recruited as their kidneys were obtainable at much lower cost than those of the Israeli suppliers." (David Smith, Hospitals in South Africa charged over kidney transplant trafficking, Guardian, 16 Sep 2010)

"most of the profits are still coming from South Africa. The margins are still here." (David Shapiro cited in Alec Hogg, Netcare interim results: Richard Friedland - group CEO, Netcare, MoneyWeb, 17 May 2010)

WHY THEY LIKE POOR PEOPLE FROM "EMERGING MARKETS"

"The charge sheet said documents related to surgeries were forged to make it appear that the recipient and the donor were family members, a requirement of South African law. Israeli kidney suppliers were paid $20,000 while Brazilians and Romanians were paid $6,000, it said." (David Smith, Hospitals in South Africa charged over kidney transplant trafficking, Guardian, 16 Sep 2010)

THESE "MERCHANTS OF THE EARTH" WILL BUY AND SELL ANYTHING

And that's how it is with these men. If there's money to be made, they will make a market:

11And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise any more: 12The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all manner vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble, 13And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men. Revelation 18

"The "originality of the Bible apart, even the friends of the Jews held that the Jewish character was bad and that it was formed by influences which went back to the early rabbis." (Raphael Patai, The Jewish Mind, Wayne State University Press, 1996, p 252) "Jews have specialized in commerce, and their religion has made the study of the Talmud a prime duty." (Arthur Ruppin cited in Raphael Patai, The Jewish Mind, Wayne State University Press, 1996, p 377)

And this is what happens.
