/toronto_doctor_urges_ottawa_to_admit_injured_gaza_kids_for_treatment

Toronto physician Izzeldin Abuelaish, who is proposing to bring severely injured children from war-torn Gaza to Canada for medical treatment, is urging the federal government to support the idea.

...

He says Gazas health-care system is severely damaged and overwhelmed by the number of injured civilians, including thousands of children.

...

He says Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird hasnt replied to his requests for a meeting to talk about the matter.

Ontario Health Minister Eric Hoskins, a doctor who has worked in war zones, says the province is willing to treat injured children from Gaza and Israel.

Why would injured Gazans need to travel as far as Canada when clearly there are several rich Arab League and other nations much closer and more than capable to treat such patients ?

Because you hate injured Gazan children. That's why!

Love 'em or hate 'em, it's just a bad economic idea. They'd be better off sending help than bringing people back.

And Israel treats quite a few.

We'd best start care package dropping those MRI machines then. We're not talking tonsillectomies here.

Well, if they all need MRI's, it's gonna cost much more than I thought. Yikes!

What did you think they were coming here for; band-aids and popsicles?

Tell Hamas to stop firing rockets, people will stop dying and the international community would be sure to go to Gaza and help those children. Simple!

Tell Israel to lift the blockade so the children of Gaza can thrive.

The blockades were put in place specifically because of Hamas. OK, tell the Palestinians to remove Hamas - then some negotiations can happen. You see, everything that happens is because of Hamas. Israel will not and should not have to open borders to a group of terrorists. Bomb clad terrorists would be running at that border like trailer park people at a blue light special.

P.S - Why don't you preach to Egypt about opening their borders? - Oh yeah, because they've found 1200 tunnels and don't trust Hamas any more than Israel.

Not that the tunnel diggers came out so well. They did not, however, die at the hands of Israelis; Hamas executed their own tunnel diggers (link, excerpts below):

Hamas said to have executed dozens of tunnel diggers
Hamas executed dozens of diggers responsible for its extensive tunnel system in past weeks, fearing the workers would reveal the site locations to Israel, a report on the Mako website’s army blog said.
***************************

Sources in Gaza told the website that Hamas took a series of precautions to prevent information from reaching Israel. The terror organization would reportedly blindfold the excavators en route to the sites and back, to prevent them from recognizing the locations. The tunnels were strictly supervised by Hamas members, and civilians were kept far from the sites.

**************************************

After the tunnels were completed, dozens were reportedly executed to prevent intelligence leaks to Israel.

***********************************
These "people" are beneath contempt. The ones who organize tunnel digs of this kind and then butcher the workers are indeed "rats on four legs."

In Jacee's world Israel lifts an embargo so that Hamas can bring in more weapons to attack Israel with.

Alice in Wonderland.

Not really.

The blockade is what's left of the Israeli occupation of Gaza.

Hamas evolved to fight the occupation.

You have a very naive understanding of the situation.

But keep on learning.

And in your vision Rue?

Do millions of Arabs simply disappear from the Gaza and West Bank refugee camps so 'Eretz Israel' becomes reality?

Are they exterminated?

Or are they simply crowded more and more, oppressed and starved out?

What is your vision Rue?

My vision? I have no visions. I have stated numerous times on this forum what my position is.

It remains as I stated and you have read in the past.

It is a hope that Palestinians can find a second state and live peacefully side by side Israel and Joddan.

It is a hope that Palestinians shed themselves of Muslim extremists who hate Jews and Hordanians and condone terrorists.

It is a hope Palestinians accept that a Jewish state is a reality, a Jordanian state is a reality and that Palestinians can achieve a stable, safe country living peacefully in an economuic free trade market with Israel and Jordan and an ability to expedite travel through each state and access to each other's airports and ports.

It would require disarming of terrorists, recognizing a Jewish state and a comprehensive withdrawal of Jewish settlers from many areas on the West Bank that now exist.

That is not possible at this time. Israel can not return to 67 borders as long as terrorists devoted to destroying it exist.

I believe that the dream of taking back Israel imposed on Palestinians by Hamas and the PA enslaves them and keeps them down.

I hope one day they can move past where they are at.

Yes, I can just imagine all the thriving they would be doing under Hamas.

Tell us more about what can and cannot happen, so we can make decisions based on your ability to see into the future.

Israelis receive massive amount of money and military aid from the US, turn around and make their own even more sophisticated weapons, try them on living, breathing Palestinians to see how effectively they can kill men, women, and children, destroy homes, hospitals, schools, and mosques, then go off to the global arms market to sell their most recent weapons to the best (including many Arab) buyers, as they dispatch Elie Wiesel to buy ads in newspapers in US and Europe to tell the world how Palestinians are hiding behind their own children and are child killers--while Obama and Hillary Clinton say Israel has every right to defend itself and the US Congress sends even more money and ammunition to "the only democracy in the Middle East," as BBC cites Israeli army spokesman that not that many people have been killed in Gaza anyway, while the Guardian publishes passionate articles warning that those who are protesting in Europe against any of these are antisemites--as the Israeli arms manufacturers go back to their bunkers to make even more sophisticated weapons to try them on Palestinians in about a couple of years from now, so that Sam Harris the American philosopher and chief executive of "Project Reason" can write another learned essay from his moral philosophical vantage point arguing "Why he cannot oppose Israel!"--it all kind of makes perfect sense, doesn't it?
