British Doctors Don't Like Israeli Doctors Because... Well, For Some Sort Of Reason

Another week, another British academic boycott of Israel. This time it's doctors:

A group of 130 British doctors have called for a boycott of the Israel Medical Association and its expulsion from the World Medical Association. In a letter to The Guardian newspaper in England last week the physicians, headed by the notoriously anti-Israel Dr Derek Summerfield and Professor Colin Green claimed "Persistent violations of medical ethics have accompanied Israel’s occupation."

We'll ignore how no other country's doctors are blamed for real or imagined human rights violations committed by the country they live in (whatever happened to doctors not having borders, eh?) And it's even that we think Israelis might have something to contribute to the world of medicine or science. It's that blaming Israeli doctors for not doing enough to help Palestinians is hypocrisy of the most disgusting sort:

Palestinians routinely travel to Israeli hospitals for medical treatment, where Israeli doctors - being good and human - treat them as patients rather than as enemy combatants.Occasionally, upon being restored to health in Israeli hospitals by Israelis doctors, those same Palestinians return to try to blow up those very same hospitals and doctors.

We're beginning to suspect that the motives for this new boycott effort aren't entirely rational. Or non-anti-Semitic, for that matter. We wonder if this has anything to do with how even the British now admit that their upper educational institutions have been infiltrated by anti-Semitic Islamists. Certainly those two things seem to be connected.
