ISRAELI DOCTOR SLAMS UNHRC’S GOLDSTONE REPORT…….

The Goldstone Report is a sham, and the people who helped compile it know that to be the case. In an earlier post, the Tundra Tabloids blogged about the quote from Finnish ambassador to Brussels and NATO, Mr.Aapo Pölhö who stated that:
“Facts do not have to match with reality in order to become accepted as facts. If they are used to form policy, then they become indeed facts”
This type of thinking under lines what has become a defacto policy in the MFA:s and political circles and think tanks of Europe. A factual historical rendering is mooted once the narrative of any one side gains steam within policy making institutions. The institutions just mentioned are full of such people. They will consistantly refuse to accept the true facts to the historical setting of the Arabs’ conflict with Israel, because it doesn’t fit their narrative, and trying to reason with them by proving one’s point with the true facts… is meaningless. They’re not interested.
The Goldstone report, while it may not result in anything that might be totally damaging to Israel, like resulting in a boycott or sanctions or criminal offenses etc.., the report will however be one of those non-Israeli facts entered into the historical narrative to help support the Arabs’ conflict with the Jewish state, and remain uncontested, no matter how much is shown to the contrary.
This doesn’t mean that the truth shouldn’t be reported and disseminated around the Internet and sent to government institutions, because, some people there do view the true facts to be significant enough to warrant being the foundation for any government policy. We see the same phenomenon at work in our judicial system here in Finland, where speaking the truth can no longer be used as a defense. As was the case in the Jussi Halla-aho trial, the offense caused to people by the use of a truthfully worded argument, automatically negates the legality of the argument being posed.
So it is with the Arabs’ conflict with Israel, any truthfull facts that show indeed, Israel acted in a moral and just way in the Gaza War, will be dismissed. The TT believes that as with the media, we have to do an end run around these types who will always refuse to consider the facts. Speaking directly to the people, no matter how difficult and painstaking the process may be, is the only way to groom a new generation who will not be hostile to Israel and to the truth.
Our generation has been asleep at the switch, as these institutions have been stacked with types who are only willing to think one way. We have to start over from scratch, w have to begin taking back our institutions of learning, and expose these hacks when ever they open their mouths. KGS

Israeli Doctor: Dear Judge Goldstone, They Deceived You, You are Wrong

“Dear Judge Goldstone,

My name is Dr. David Zangen. I am a consultant in Pediatric Endocrinology and Diabetes at Hadassah University Hospital in Jerusalem. Over 50% of my patient population is Palestinian from Jerusalem, the West Bank and Gaza. I speak Arabic and initiated the first training program for Palestinian physicians in the field of Pediatric Endocrinology. The trained physicians were fully respected and were included as first authors on our studies that we published in the world’s leading professional journals.
But, at the same time, I happened to be the Chief Medical Officer of my brigade during Operation Defensive Shield, in Jenin, 2002. I was responsible for the medical treatment of our soldiers, but also for enabling the hospital in Jenin to provide full medical services to the civilian population, and I was personally involved in numerous medical treatments that Palestinians (including fighters) received from Israeli physicians.
During and after the operation the director of Jenin Hospital was a source for what has been falsely called the “massacre in Jenin in which 5,000 people were slaughtered.” This same person, Dr. Abu Rali, has also claimed that one part of the Jenin hospital was destroyed by Israeli tank missiles: “12 tank rockets were shot at the hospital.”
You should know, honorable Judge, that these statements have been proven and documented as outright lies, not only by Israeli sources, but also by the Human Rights Watch and UN organizations, which counted only 52 dead on the Palestinian side and 23 on the Israeli side. These organizations, and photographs of Jenin Hospital following the operation, showed no evidence of any destruction at the hospital buildings.
This Dr. Abu Rali, a hospital director and physician, lies and incites in the service of the Shahids. It is hard to believe that a director of a hospital can give such an obviously false testimony. I cannot understand it. And you cannot understand it. But, unfortunately, this is what has happened. Even people who would normally be considered reliable sources become advocates of blatant lies. Tragically, moral misbehavior of doctors in the Palestinian Authority is not new. The pediatrician, George Habash, sent his terrorists to kill children in Israeli schools, as did Hamas’ leader and pediatrician, Dr. Abd al-Aziz Rantisi, as well as pediatrician, Dr. Mahmud Zaher, who continues to encourage the launching of rockets from Gaza against innocent Israeli schools.
Please Judge Goldstone, you should really be careful when such blatant liars serve as the basis for your report. I am sure that you mean well, but being an eyewitness, both to the events in Jenin and to the subsequent media, and initially false, UN reporting, I do understand what happened to you, how a person of such stature and integrity could become associated with such a faulty report.
Look, Judge Goldstone, at your report on the Al Fakhura incident on January 5-6th 2009 (paragraphs 651-688). You do report how Israel was accused for directly bombing the UNRWA school. It took two weeks for this accusation to be withdrawn. But you, honored Judge, went back to get your testimony only from the same people who spread the blood libel of the school bombing. Moreover, when analyzing the scene you claim that you could not verify the numbers of 24 dead and 40 wounded, but these numbers are not considered exaggerated. Finally, in the ‘Factual Findings’ section, you already determine that 24 people were killed and 40 injured!
Did you, by any chance, try to validate any of these invented and inciting details? Did you look at the Al Jazeera or BBC reports from the same very day of the event? Did you try to validate your ‘Factual Findings’ conclusions by at least getting emergency room charts on the people admitted to their trauma department on this very day? Did you go over the ID’s of the “dead” and the place or cemetery where they were supposedly buried?
No, you didn’t!
As a judge I am sure that you did not mean to hurt Israel. I try to believe that you came to Gaza without prejudice. But a judge is expected to look, at least, for some evidence and verification (media, emergency room registration, burial places, etc.) of the testimonies and not accept impossible “facts”. You have allowed yourself to be misled by fabrications made either by terrorists or doctors such as Dr. Abu Rali from Jenin.
I, and my colleagues in Israel, are proud of the medical service that is given equally to every human being regardless of origin; we are also proud to belong to a nation that is identified as having higher moral standards than others.
I call on you, Judge Goldstone. Take this Al Fakhura incident, look at the media coverage from the very same day. See the events in their context. Try to live one day with the responsibility for the existence of this small nation of six million Jews threatened constantly by 300 million Muslims. I call on you to try and not draw conclusions from such lies and misleading witnesses, even if they come from so-called professionals. In the modern world, propaganda and lies are definitely a part of the war. And as a judge, you should not serve as a tool for augmenting hatred and conflicts.
We desire peace. We love peace. And we try our utmost to fight for our right to exist while maintaining the highest possible moral standards, even at the cost of our lives.
