Palestinians donate son's kidney for Israeli boy
The family of a 12-year-old Palestinian boy who was killed by Israeli soldiers have donated one of his kidneys to an Israeli boy. "It doesn't matter whether the recipient was a Jew or an Arab," they said. Ahmed Khatib was shot on Thursday in the West Bank city of Jenin. He was rushed to the emergency room at Rambam hospital in Haifa, but died without recovering consciousness. The army said he had a toy gun, which soldiers mistook for a rifle. The family said he was with a group of boys waving toy guns to celebrate a festival. Jamil Khatib, his uncle, said the boy's father, Ismail, agreed to the donation after he saw the young Israeli kidney patient. "He had a brother, Shawkat, who died several years ago from kidney failure. He understood what it was like. Shawkat needed a kidney, but he never got one." The extended Khatib family was divided over the donation. Palestinian prisoners phoned and said they should not give the kidney to the enemy. http://news.independent.co.uk/world/...icle325229.ece I happen to think this is a baby-step in the right direction not because of the donation of the kidney but because the family doesn't care if the person was a Jew or Arab. |
