In reply to the discussion: Israel gave birth control to Ethiopian Jews without their consent [View all]JDPriestly
(57,936 posts)I can't read the Haaretz article. I don't subscribe.
Ethiopian women were given the treatments but we don't know how many women were involved, how long they received the treatments, whether Israeli women were also given the treatments, whether perhaps this is a commonly used birth control method in Israel.
I don't approve or deny the method. Women clearly should not be given any medication of any kind against their will, especially not birth control. But the information in the articles I read is, while inflammatory, very incomplete. I have no context to place the information in. Yes. The article talks about Ethiopian immigrants to Israel. But it really leaves more questions unanswered than answered. If I knew more, I might be quite angry. But the articles I have found to read just leave me with questions.
