“Dead on Arrival”: Doctors Back from Gaza Describe Horrific Hospital Scenes, Decimated Health System
Support our work: www.democracynow.org/donate?campaign=sm-desc-yt&
Nearly seven months of constant bombardment, siege and obstruction of aid deliveries have annihilated the healthcare system in Gaza. Last week, the Palestinian Health Ministry said that around 600,000 Palestinians in the northern Gaza Strip no longer have access to any kind of healthcare. The World Health Organization has said that Israel is “systematically dismantling” the health system in Gaza. Only 11 hospitals out of 36 hospitals in Gaza are partially functioning. At both of Gaza’s largest hospitals, Al-Shifa and Nasser, Palestinians found hundreds of bodies buried in mass graves after Israel raided and destroyed the facilities. Democracy Now! speaks with Dr. Ismail Mehr and Dr. Azeem Elahi just after they volunteered at the largest hospital still operating in Gaza, the European Hospital in Khan Younis. “The healthcare system has been always in a noose, and that noose tightens at times when there’s conflict,” says Mehr. “Right now that noose has completely just hung the healthcare system.”

    Israel doesn't need more weapons. Ukraine does. Israel and Palestine need humanitarian aid and refuge housing. Sudan and Kenya, Africa, Brazil, Germany, China, Taiwan, Ruang volcanic chain islands, Iceland, Italy, Congo, EAU, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, India, Texas Panhandle, Louisiana, Florida, Ohio, Oklahoma, Mexico, and I can go on, are all having disasters of all kinds! Flooding and earthquakes, earthquakes and volcanos, more flooding mixed with tornados. I am in Northern California and it has snowed all weekend. Record lows, mixed with record highs the very next day. I'm thinking weapons shouldn't be a priority in many places, especially with the civil unrest. This war in Gaza is not a war, it is a genocide. Isreal has never cared about the Palestinian People. We are losing our rights to peaceful protests too. Women have lost their reproductive rights. Banning books? The same thing is happening here. How far are we going to let them go?

    This is important to distinguish. Also, it's important to be aware that in Gaza, they don't typically make or care about this distiinction. They actually teach Jew hatred. That's really what's underneath the conflict. I'm happy American students are attempting to make a distinction, it's just not the same sentiment in the middle east. More research before giving time and energy to causes, so intelligence can create complex solutions.
