Video: Barzilay Hospital in Ashkelon treats all

Surprisingly, this report appeared on CNN. It's a report about Barzilay Hospital in Ashkelon, the closest Israeli hospital to Gaza and to Sderot, and how it treats all patients regardless of whether they are Jewish or Arab, Israeli or 'Palestinian.' By the way, this is true of every hospital in Israel. Israeli hospitals are crawling with patients - many of them children - from among the 'Palestinians,' and from Jordan and Egypt (among others) as well. Most of the Arab patients who are not citizens of Israel and don't have Israeli insurance coverage don't pay.

The kid with the shattered shoulder in the video is Yossi Haimov, whom you last saw here.

By the way, Barzilay Hospital has the highest birth rate in the world - thanks to its proximity to Gaza and to the Bedouin tribes in the Negev.

Watch this video and think about it: If a hospital in Gaza had the equipment that Barzilay has, could a Jew be treated there?

Sorry, fed up with doing favors. Pack them all out of Barzilai and let their Egyptian brothers and sisters give them the usual tender loving care.
