Oh, there is no discussion going on, just my own impressions on where things are going...true, though, that its worth looking into discussions here, as they seem to either reflect the US undercurrents or migrate. <br>--<br>Organ harvesting...I think this is an issue that is waiting just beneath the surface...Like today, little bit of news on the agony of patients awaiting transplantation and not having organs. While so many other people in Israel are dying from a collapsing public medical service...suddenly, the little compassion remaining in journalism is reserved for those few ! who are waiting a very expensive procedure...just little things like that. It is legal in Israel to sell organs, your own etc., which I think is the beginning of the process. (btw is it legal in the USA ?). <br>--<br>I just bought some simple flu/bronchitis medications yesterday, it cost me a "nominal" 50 $ (it is supposed to be free in our system) many people can't afford it. But our free public medicine would cover those expensive transplantations...just a thought. <br>Once insurance companies are in this business (and they are, because they insure organ transplantation as complementary medical insurance here, aside from the basic "free medicair" we all get, which as you can see is not at all free anymore)...you can be sure that harvesting is going on...<br>Whatever these local insurance corps do here, is always part of larger insurance companies. they are all connected somehow.<br>--<br>as for psychiatric colonization and the medicalization of government as new "defensive" fascism...well, I am certainly not writing anything new. Foucault, the ol' man, has already warned against it. And specifically with regards to western psychiatry and psycho-pharma industry. The only distinct Israeli issue here, is the wholehearted adoption of these sick theories. Among the ten countries participating in the APA globalization of DSM...you can find Israel of course, in charge of...(hold your breath) OCD. The local commissar, on behalf of APA is a Prof. called Yossi (Joseph) ZOhar, a protege of HIMH, Veteran's Administration, biological psychiatrist and all that good stuff, he he. Actually, I was just looking for info on a doctor here, who immigrated from the USA some decades ago, called Belmaker who created the "cabal" of genetic/bio psychiatrists here, who all work closely with reactionary bodies in the USA. He studied Religion in Harvard, and the moved to MD in N.Carolina, then went through all the suspicious places, Maryland military shit, NIMH and what not. Then immigrated to Israel, to "incubate" his ideas and spread them here. <br>Prof. ZOhar, for instance, testified in a parliamentary comission on Co morbidity (drug use and mental illness). He explained the situation in the Veteran Administration re alcoholism among shell shocked soldiers and such like. Then he says "I want to say that it is wothwhile to work with the VA, their budget is more than our entire state budget." (a sound professional reasoning ...<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :eek --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/eek.gif ALT=":eek"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> ).<br> <br>Next stage - Prof. ZOhar, and NIMH declare Judaism to be a form of OCD, two pills by Rumsfeld-Gilead or something, will cure you...rest assure. Before that, though, the new global neo con DSM will declare "leftist personality" as geneticallly "non grata" ...special self elimination pills will be administered and so forth. <br>There, the antibiotics I am taking now, are making me delirious..<br><br><br> <p></p><i></i>
