This might be a good place to look, but do we have any connection between the organ market and the Podestas or Clintons?

I find it interesting that this article talks about them using the organs to treat wounded fighters:
a) That would require some highly specialized infrastructure and highly trained doctors
b) The types of injuries sustained by fighters generally don't require organ transplant (although they could). Blood and blood products is another issue, and these would likely be used in treatment of wounded fighters.
c) If these organs are predominantly from children, they would not be suitable for transplant into (presumably) adult fighters.
Even if they are taking the organs for sale on the black market, that would require some very specialized infrastructure and logistics. It's not like you can just chuck a kidney in a freezer bag and fedex it somewhere.
That is not to say that this isn't happening. However, the technical and logistical requirements indicate that this is likely not run primarily by the islamist fighters. They simply lack the technical skills and equipment to do it effectively. This paints a darker picture ... who would work with such people to harvest the organs of innocent children and civilians? Surely the investigators at the UN would be interested enough to follow up on where these organs end up. Like some macabre WWF commercial... when the buying stops, the killing can too!

They might be harvesting them for resale, but you're correct, the technology that must go into a transplant is not going to be available in the battlefield, let alone the recovery support and rejection drugs each transplant recipient must take for life.

This is absolutely unacceptable. Using them for nothing more than spare parts is sickening.
