‘We have to keep growing:’ Mother of killed Israeli hostage in battle to have a grandchild with his harvested sperm

"Jews are born from corpse sperm" sounds like some shit that would be too antisemitic for a nazi to say. Like that's some Russian tsar level antisemitism. Insane country making the sane Jews of the world look bad.

cool two truths and a lie for the kid when they're a teen:
my father was dead before i was conceived
he was a nazi
israel has the right to exist

Haim now faces an uphill battle to get approval to use his sperm to produce a grandchild. If she succeeds, her next challenge would be to find a woman to carry the child and raise it.

OK, that's slightly less bad than the headline made it sound, but still

OMG I see what you mean 😐
What a headline lol
Yeah, I was concerned this was going a different way but I wouldn't have been surprised
SHE'S NOT EVEN GOING TO RAISE IT HERSELF???
It's a decent bit worse than how I read it because I assumed this was on behalf of a daughter-in-law, rather than hey ladies, would you be interested in my deceased son's semen? You look like the kind of woman who my son would have loved to posthumously impregnate. No, it's not what it sounds like at all - I already filled out all the paperwork to get the approval! All the legwork is already taken care of! All you need to do is conceive the child and raise it.
carry the child and raise it
Not to give her advice but I think she'd have an easier time if she said she wanted an egg donor (so no inbreeding) but would carry the pregnancy herself. And obviously not wanting to raise the grandkid is insane.
- The IDF conscripts women too, so maybe she could find a cadaver whose ovaries are still viable. Why should reproductive necromancy only benefit the patriarchy?
seriously, that is 100% how I took it and was dying inside, because purposely high kinship linebreeding to "keep the lineage pure" I'm pretty sure went out of fashion a few millenia ago and I was getting the impression this person saw the antagonists of the X-Files episode "Home" as aspirational.

I can't fucking believe western media wrote "harvested sperm" without thinking about how fucking psychotic that sounds. It could be described in so many other ways that make it sound less horrible but they really went for "harvesting" something from a corpse.

Israelis would rather have a racially pure child from corpse sperm than adopt any one of the millions of orphan children around the world
- I would rather they don't have kids AND don't adopt them
- Don't give them ideas. Those orphans deserve better than to end up as zionists.
uh what's the "sane" (for lack of a better term) way to describe getting sperm out of a dead body for the purpose of conception?
I personally feel like you shouldn't judge something based on how it's phrased. That seems a bit tone policy/civility brained.
- My point is that the western media constantly picks its words very carefully to dehumanise its enemies and frame its allies as moral and upstanding. "Harvesting" is anti regime language with negative connotations in people's minds when it comes from organ harvesting.
  It's just surprising that nobody in the western media has realised how fucking freaky they're making it sound with this language. They usually wouldn't use language that has a negative vibe for their allies.

mistakenly identified as a terrorist

Yeah, they saw that he was unarmed and incapable of fighting back which is the #1 way an Israeli soldier identifies a "valid" target

To mitigate these issues, Savitsky believes that young men should be asked whether they would want their sperm to be posthumously retrieved before they enter army service, but said the ministry of defense may be wary of implementing this as it could dent troop morale.

Lmao fucking cult ass society, in a league of their own.

Why not just humously get a sperm sample?
- You'll put the Kum Kollection Korps out of work
- Not sick enough.

necronatalism is wild

Someone needs to larp in the anti natalist spaces as a necronatalist.

This is literally the 40k meme of extracting the sacred balls of fallen space marines

ahh progenoid glands, one is in the neck you know

In Israel, extracting sperm from a dead body is permitted, but there is no law that clearly defines the process of using the sperm for the purpose of producing offspring.
“In Israeli law, we don’t have a law for this procedure,” Nily Shatz, Haim’s lawyer, said, adding that family courts have only approved posthumous use of sperm by parents of the deceased to produce a child twice in the past; however, the second case was later overturned after an appeal brought by the state. “All the other cases were rejected.”

What. The. Fuck!? They take the sperm, but have no laws to allow it to be used!? THEY TAKE THE SPERM AND HAVE NO LEGAL USE FOR IT!?!?

WHY THE FUCK DO THEY TAKE THE SPERM THEN!!??

Oh so that's why Sabra tastes so weird
The love of the game
i must assume people are just going for it rather than seeking approval?
Caviar is becoming rarer and there are increasing ethical objections. However molecular gastronomy and cold oil spherification techniques have advanced significantly.
- Didn't they find some way of making caviar cheaply in China a few years ago?

Dr. Jordan Peterson personally swooped into the battlefield with the tactical milking kit and got that precious seed in time.

The colonial situation dehumanizes the colonizer, example number 1000000

I know it's beside the point, but it's wild that forensic examination of bodies is considered to be desecrating a corpse, but you can just do this. Like, how can you possibly tell me that this is more in line with the Torah than even a superficial examination to determine the cause of death of a murder victim? Especially if there is no prior consent on the part of the recently deceased.

amazing advancements in language efficiency as 14 words have been shortened to 5

"{Did|1} {they|2} {save|3} {his|4} {cum|5}?!"

Children of the dead seed let's fucking goooo.

TBH while I think it's a bit ghoulish I could see why someone might want to do this if their SO died before they had a chance to breed if that's what they both wanted prior. It could almost be sweet I suppose.

Harvesting the sperm of your child and then hunting for a willing mother is kinda fucked up though, there have to be healthier ways to grieve than this.

Who needs tomes and volumes of history? Children are dying. The injustices of the world hide in those three words
- Did you know that we too left civilization behind? The scribblers were closing in on all sides, you see. The clerks with their purple tongues and darting eyes, their shuffling feet and sloped shoulders, their bloodless lists. Oh, measure it all out! Acceptable levels of misery and suffering!’ The cane swung down, thumped hard on the ground. ‘Acceptable? Who the fuck says any level is acceptable? What sort of mind thinks that?’ Karsa grinned. ‘Why, a civilized one.’
  legit the mbotf is a masterwork and Ericson's unending compassion for people that comes through was a significant for me developing a healthier view on human foibles.
I mean, I don't give it long before the mothers become the mothers.
- I literally thought that’s what the article was describing—the guys mother wanting to get his semen and carry her own grandchild. I guess she intends to find a surrogate, but when the story starts by covering the topic of post-death semen extraction for making new children, anything seems “reasonable”
  Side note: if they’re all so concerned about continuing lineages and such, why not make semen donation a required part of the entry physical or something. Surely that would be less weird and dangerous than having dedicated post-death semen extraction services?
