An Israeli court has rejected an appeal to allow a five-year-old Palestinian boy with an aggressive form of cancer to enter Israel for life-saving treatment, citing a government policy that bars residents registered in Gaza from crossing the border, even when they no longer live there.

In a ruling issued on Sunday, the Jerusalem district court dismissed a petition seeking permission to transfer the child from Ramallah to Tel HaShomer hospital near Tel Aviv for a bone marrow transplant – a procedure unavailable in either Gaza or the occupied West Bank. The boy has been in the West Bank since 2022 where he was receiving medical care unavailable in the Gaza Strip. His doctors have determined that he urgently requires antibody immunotherapy.

Fuck Israel

It’s not a legitimate state and never has been

It was stolen so that the US and UK could have a tame dog in the land of oil

Zionists are filth, and I hope to see a free Palestine someday

That is so mild compared to what they’ve done and still doing to Palestinian children.

Israel is one of the top 5 mistakes of the 20th century.

Hopefully Egypt or Jordan or Lebanon or Turkey or Saudi Arabia or Iran or any other trillion dollar petrostate can help out

They won’t because they are collaborators. They do what the United States of Izrael wants. Except for Iran which used to supply weapons.

Israel is a shit stain upon the earth. It’s government, and the public that cheers this shit on, needs to be erased and written over with 0’s.
