"Completely Illegal": Dr. Feroze Sidhwa on Israel's "Outrageous" Attacks on Gaza Hospitals & Staff



As Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visits the White House on Monday to discuss a possible new ceasefire in Gaza, we speak with Dr. Feroze Sidhwa about the humanitarian disaster in the Palestinian territory, where Israel has damaged or destroyed much of the health infrastructure since the start of the war in October 2023. Sidhwa is a trauma surgeon in California who volunteered at Nasser Hospital in Gaza. He says Israel's impunity in attacking hospitals across Gaza is "outrageous behavior" that blatantly violates the rules of war. "Literally every attack on a healthcare facility in Gaza has been justified by … a willful misunderstanding of international law or just outright lies."

my bet that Netanyahu's visit here to end the Gaza war will be fruitless as an end to that war is the last thing he wants.

Think about it, thru all the negotiations for a two-state solution during the Biden admin he has backed away at the last minute every time only to resume the bomb strikes.

Why? Because if the war ends his corrupt ass will have to face charges in Israel. This IMO is why he keeps expanding the war, attacking Lebanon and now Iran, because the ethnic cleansng in Gaza is winding down so he has to find a new front to wage war on to avoid trial at home.

He's slippery.
