Israel is launching a potentially trailblazing experiment in organ donation: Sign a donor card, and you and your family move up in line for a transplant if one is needed.
The new law is the first of its kind in the world, and international medical authorities are eager to see if it boosts organ supply. But it has also raised resistance from within Israel's ultra-Orthodox Jewish minority.
I like the concept of being a default organ donor. If you don't want to donate, then you should be forced to fill out forms.
I agree with this. I kinda understand that some people get the willies just thinking about doctors gripping their organs after death, but IMO, people should have to specify that they're NOT willing to donate rather than that they are.
