From Gaza, The Guardian's Inigo Gilmore produced another superficial, tear-jerker video lacking any context. Gilmore today focuses on Palestinians trying to get medical treatment in Israel.
Unanswered questions abound:
- How can it be that the people who want to destroy Israel also demand its medical care?
- Dr. Elihu Richter's study on medical entry permits documented instances where Palestinians abused the permits to carry out terror attacks or visit relatives in Israel. He also documented refusals for mundane reasons like lack of available beds. Why were no Israelis given an opportunity to explain that a high percentage of medical requests are indeed approved, as Dr. Richter found?
- Are the Hamas-Fatah bureaucratic turf wars still killing Palestinians?
- What about treatment in Egypt?
And as I pointed out yesterday in response to the first video, Gazans aren't brave enough — or stupid enough — to tell Western reporters like Gilmore anything other than the Hamas party line.
