A notable and heartening exception was the news story of the donation of a kidney by an Israeli to a 9 year old Palestinian. I believe the Israeli's family was also the victim(s) of a suicide bomber. It wasn't a "donation", exactly. An Israeli terror victim died, the family agreed to donate the organs, which were assigned by need, not differentiating between Arab or Jew, according to standard hospital procedure. The press just happened to find out about the organ donation in this case and made a big deal about it. And in case you didn't catch it, I was being sarcastic about electronicintifada. They are a palestinian propaganda source, though I'm sure they must be balanced ocassionally, if only by accident.
