British Doctors Call for New Israel Boycott
[European Jewish Press] Jeremy Last - A group of 130 British doctors have called for a boycott of the Israel Medical Association and its expulsion from the World Medical Association. Martin Sugarman, the head of a twinning group between Homerton Hospital in London and Haifa's Rambam Hospital in Israel, said he was shocked by the call. "If suicide bombers from Gaza and the West Bank never dressed as pregnant or sick patients trying to reach and blow up Israeli hospitals, if PLO ambulances did not transport terrorists and arms, then maybe there would be no need for the security fence [and] check points," he told London's Jewish News. "Despite all this, Israeli hospitals still treat free, Palestinian civilians from the West Bank and Gaza with severe illnesses and conditions."
