This one is for those nice folks who want to Boycott Israel, Divest investments in Israeli companies (including, of course, medical technology) and sanction the Jewish state.

Doctors re-attach boy’s head after car accident thanks to ‘amazing’ surgery
Surgeons in Israel performed a miracle surgery and managed to reattach a boy’s head after he was hit by a car while riding his bike, the Jerusalem hospital announced this week.
Suleiman Hassan, a 12-year-old Palestinian from the West Bank, suffered what is known as an internal decapitation, with his skull detached from the top vertebrae of his spine – officially known as a bilateral atlanto occipital joint dislocation, according to The Times of Israel.
He was riding his bike when a car hit him. The boy was rushed to Hadassah Medical Center and immediately put him into surgery in the trauma unit. The doctors said his head was “almost completely detached from the base of his neck.”
Dr. Ohad Einav, the orthopedic specialist who led the operation, said the procedure took several hours and required the doctors to use “new plates and fixations in the damaged area.”
“Our ability to save the child was thanks to our knowledge and the most innovative technology in the operating room,” Einav said, adding that the team “fought for the boy’s life.”
Wait a minute. The child’s name is Suleiman Hassan? He’s a “Palestinian”?
Omigod. Heaven forfend. Can this mean that Doctors at Hadassah Medical Center moved heaven and earth to utilize amazing, new, innovative technology and save the life of a non-Jew? An Arab? A boy from a place where the government pays reward money to the families of people, including young boys just like Suleiman Hassan, if they die killing Jews?
This is terrible!!! I think the BDS crowd should attack the doctors and the hospital for inflicting this medical technology on a 12 year old Arab boy!!!
Hey, BDS is BDS, right?
Or…
…on the other hand, maybe BDS isn’t such a good idea after all. Maybe the advances in medical as well other areas of science and agriculture that have become a hallmark of the state of Israel should be encouraged and funded.
You decide which makes more sense.
