Ambassador Mohamed Alhakim told reporters that in the past few weeks, bodies with surgical incisions and missing kidneys or other body parts have been found in shallow mass graves.
"We have bodies. Come and examine them," he said. "It is clear they are missing certain parts.
He also said a dozen doctors have been "executed" in Mosul for refusing to participate in organ harvesting.
The shocking new claim was presented by the Iraqi ambassador to the United Nations, who said bodies have turned up in mass graves bearing surgical incisions and missing organs such as kidneys. Ambassador Mohamed Alhakim leveled the charge as he asked the Security Council to investigate whether harvesting and selling the organs of those it executes. The claim followed an unconfirmed report late Tuesday that as many as 45 people captured by the Islamic State in the Anbar Province town of al-Baghdadi had been rounded up and burned alive. "We have bodies," Alhakim told his international counterparts. "Come and examine them. It is clear they are missing certain parts."

If Satan exists, then ISIS is his spawn!
Then again who is the more evil, ISIS or the men and women who purchase these body parts?

When it is your wife or kid who is dying on the waiting list.....
Doesn't seem evil to me honestly.
Harvesting them, oh yes. Buying one so your loved one can live....not so much.

Buying them is just as evil. Could you tell your wife or kid some innocent person was murdered to get what they needed to live?

I think it is quite possible the purchaser wouldn't know where it is coming from or has been lied to about the origin. However the point stands, if my child was going to die in the next week without an organ transplant, and someone came to me with said organ in hand I can't honestly say I would tell them no I would rather watch my kid die then have an organ put in them that was taken from someone that was murdered. I don't want you to think I am condoning this act or something, because I am not and it is horrible. If the person was already killed and the organ was going to be used regardless I think I would have to take it. I know this is a slippery slope and if no one would buy them no one would steal them but..all sorts of irrational things can be done when your child is about to die. Right or wrong I don't know but it is a reality. I don't think you should demonize anyone for discussing a hypothetical.

Seems like fair battlefield strategy. Members of your group get killed with a bullet to the head, why not take his kidney to save Abdul in hospital who got shot in his.

if the nations of the world wanted, they could come together and effectively shut down, all oil exports, slave trade, and organ selling. at least enough to hurt them. we did it to saddam, or do you not remember how times and times again his selling of oil was stopped, and time and time again how he was caught selling oil against limits set in the oil for food /aid and was shut down. and how bad it hurt him.
and for those that say it cost to much, that just shows you where your priorities are. we the collation opened up this can of worms, it's up to we the collation to stop it. and as the leader of the collation we the U.S. should lead the way,regardless of cost
how can making another area better do away with what is going on in the area now? the people living in the other area don't live where the torture and killing is going on. and i would hope that they would be very uncomfortable living in a better area, knowing that the money spent on them could have stopped what is taking place in iraq, or other isis held territories
