Using video content uploaded to YouTube, as well as photos uploaded to the Internet, the Syrian Human Rights Committee accused the Syrian regime's militia today of not only resorting to torture of government opposition civilians, but also of stealing their organs, which they, in turn, sell at premium prices on the black market.

Videos reveal the bodies of youth under the age of 18, as well as adults under the age of 30 scarred by torture wounds, together with long sutures, presumably made by practitioners, around vital organ areas. Secret expert medical examinations confirm that organs were removed from the bodies. Mediarabe.info related that the Syrian Human Rights Committee called on the international community to take action in order to prevent continued human rights abuses, including the barbaric practice of organ theft for profit.

    • It appears that al Assad is determined to pursue the bloodbath of his citizens, until someone stops him. Obviously, the visit of the Arab League chief was worthless.
