Humans getting transplants from monsters
 

NABLUS, West Bank (AP) November 8, 2005 -- The father of a Palestinian boy shot dead by Israeli soldiers said Monday he believes his son's spirit is alive in "every Israeli" after donating the boy's organs to Israelis waiting for transplants.

Ismail Khatib said he was extremely proud of his decision, even if some corners of Palestinian society might be upset with him.

"No one can tell me what to do," he said. "I feel very good that my son's organs are helping six Israelis. ... I feel that my son has entered the heart of every Israeli."

Khatib's son Ahmed, 12, was shot Thursday while Israeli troops conducted a raid in Jenin. The soldiers said the boy was carrying a toy rifle and they mistook him for a militant. Ahmed died of his wounds late Saturday at an Israeli hospital.

Not sure of his motivations here, but if he meant just to help people, the world could do with a whole lot more guys like this.
