Israeli MDs Treat Flotilla Terrorists
(Washington Jewish Week) Adam Kredo - As doctors at the Hadassah Medical Center in Jerusalem began unloading the injured from a helicopter after the Gaza flotilla raid, they quickly realized it wasn't Israeli soldiers who had been rushed to their facility for emergency treatment. "We understood that they are really the terrorists who were brought to our hospital," said Dr. Shlomo Mor-Yosef, Hadassah's director general. The medical team was tasked with providing care to seven severely injured Turks. "For me it was not an issue," said Mor-Yosef. "I don't agree with what they did...but at the same time, I wanted to provide them the best treatment possible, and to cure them." Some of Mor-Yosef's staff performed life-preserving surgery on several of the wounded. "No matter who you are, if you wind up in Hadassah's emergency room, you'll be taken care of," he said.
