CAIR-LA issued a press release:
The Greater Los Angeles Area office of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-LA) today condemned the University of Southern California (USC)’s “disturbing” sale of human cadavers to the U.S. military for surgical training for the Israeli military, which has been engaging in the genocide of Palestinians in Gaza for nearly two years.
When you look at the details, you find out that for years, USC has hosted the
Navy Trauma Training Center (NTTC), where the US Navy sends medical professionals to learn how to handle trauma cases. They use cadavers, often from homeless people or those who donate their bodies for this purpose, as this is the best way to learn the subject.
The NTTC is
primarily for the Navy, but it also offers its facilities and training for others. Just as in medical schools, cadavers are the best way to train. (Non-US medical students are
not allowed to touch live patients in trauma centers under the current law.) This is all legal.
Since Israel has a shortage of cadavers for training, the IDF avails itself of the NTTC, and pays to use their facilities and for the cadavers they can provide, two per course. There is nothing unethical about this, just as there is nothing unethical about the Navy or medical schools training on cadavers. Until someone figures out a way to build androids that have perfect replicas of organs and the circulatory system, this is the only way that doctors can learn (outside of using live bodies.)
But when Jewish lives are the ones being saved, suddenly CAIR is most upset. It is "disturbing" that military medical personnel save the lives of their soldiers - but only in Israel. CAIR doesn't have a problem with the NTTC, but only with it working with the IDF, proving that its only "ethical" concern is in saving the lives of Israelis, not in using cadavers.
CAIR, which brands itself as so moral,
has not once condemned Hamas, and certainly not Hamas keeping bodies of Israelis as bargaining chips to allow Palestinian murderers to go free.
Which all goes to prove that the only "ethics" that major Muslim advocacy organization cares about are the one that cause Israelis to die.
