Selimovic is lying in our face

In todays editorial blog in SvD the director of the Radio Theatre, Jasenko Selimovic, replies to an earlier post by Per Gudmundson. It's about the radio play Between This Breath and You, by Naomi Wallace. The play is about a Jewish woman who has had lungs transplanted from a Palestinian killed in battle.
Gudmundson claimed that this is yet another variant of the ancient myth about Jews performing ritual murder. Selimovic denies this, saying:

Gudmundson has (according to what he says himself) not listened to the play, but is sure that this is an ”antisemitic play”. How can he be if he hasn't listened to it?

[...]

Nowhere, not in a single place, not in a single sentence does the play say anything about organ theft, nor does it say who would in that case do the stealing. The donated lungs of the main character might equally well have been donated perfectly legally as they might have been stolen, bought or whatever. The play just doesn't tell.

The very point with Wallaces Between This Breath and You, is namely to leave a hole for the listener to fill. And when information is left out, people usually fill that information gap with their own prejudice and worldview, just like Gudmundson does. By putting together some second-hand information and other peoples interpretations of the play with his own worldview, he draws bizarre conclusions and sees ghosts where there are none. His way to approach this play is a perfect example of how prejudice arises. A piece of information, that never was uttered, about where the organs in the play came from, is turned into ”organ theft”, background information about the origin of the play is turned into ”a story of how Israel steals organs from Palestinians”, and everything ends in accusations of ”antisemitism”. Shouldn't Gudmundson demand of himself to check the material before he makes such wide interpretations and accuses somebody like he does?

[...]

The Radio Theatre has, on its web page, somewhat clumsily and misfortunately formulated the background of the play, and has therefore removed the sentence. Not because we discovered that we're antisemitic, but because a misfortunate formulation should be corrected. This still doesn't give Gudmundson the right to blindly drop accusations of antisemitism in a play he hasn't listened to.

Apparently no claim has been made about organ theft. That part has been fantasized by Gudmundsons subconscious antisemitism!

...or?

This is what could be read at SRs web page (link removed by SR) on October 7:

Between This Breath and You is about the conflict between Israel and Palestine and is based on the disclosure that corpses of Palestinians killed in battle have been transported away and secretly used for organ donations to Israeli patients.

And this is what Selimovic calls "clumsily and misfortunately formulated", but not at all a claim of organ theft.
