 Blood Libel Part 1
A second fantasy, the blood libel, arose independently among German burghers in 1235 and spread rapidly, sparking riots and quasi-legal executions almost everywhere it appeared despite repeated warnings and refutations from pope and emperor.
To date, the blood libel--the belief that Jews secretly murder Christian children in order to collect their blood (and, more rarely, internal organs) for various purposes--has received such a vast preponderance of scholarly attention that other versions of the ritual murder accusation have been all but eclipsed.
The two traditions of blood libel and "martyred innocent" arose separately and were associated with markedly different behavior patterns on the part of the accusors, but in subsequent centuries elements from both traditions became intertwined so that such disctinctions no longer mattered.

 Our World: Prime-time blood libels   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
Their lawsuit against Karsenty was the first of three lawsuits that Enderlin and France 2 filed against French Jews who accused them in various ways of manufacturing a blood libel against Israel by purposely distorting the events at Netzarim junction that day.
Yet, even as private individuals were dedicating their time and passion to proving that France 2 had purposely broadcast a blood libel against Israel that caused the death and injury of Israelis and Jews throughout the world and marred the honor of the IDF, official Israel remained silent.
In their judgment last week, the judges argued that Karsenty's allegations against Enderlin and France 2 could not be credible since "no Israeli authority, neither the army which is nonetheless most affected, nor the Justice [Ministry] have ever accorded the slightest credit to these allegations" regarding the mendacity of the Dura film.

The last thousand years of Church history is strewn with blood libels, riots, pogroms, expulsions, and the most evil murderous attacks against Jewish communities, many of which were carried out under the behest of local parish priests.

 Medieval Sourcebook: A Blood Libel Cult: Anderl of Rinn
These terms are used almost interchangeably but there are several scholars who have sought to distinguish between ritual murder and blood libel, arguing that ritual murder refers to a sacrificial murder in general whereas the blood libel entails specific use of the blood of the victim.
In the case of alleged Jewish ritual murder, the blood motivation is nearly always present which presumably accounts for the equally common occurrence of both ritual murder and blood libel as labels.
To a religious Jew there is no difference between a German or an American or an African and a cow or a horse or a fish; all lesser non-Jewish forms of life, humanoid or otherwise, were put here by God to serve and pleasure the Jew.

 Steven Stalinsky on Blood Libel & Al-Manar on National Review Online
The 1983 book retold the notorious Damascus Blood Libel of 1840 in which the Jewish community in Damascus was accused of murdering a Christian priest named Toma, and his servant, to use their blood in making matzahs.
The second edition of Tlass's book was published in 1986 with added footnotes and pictures, including one of the tombstone of Father Toma's grave with an inscription indicating that he was killed by Jews.
Earlier, in November 2000 a French court subpoenaed the editor of the Egyptian government paper Al-Ahram for printing a blood libel strikingly similar to the one told by Tlass.
