| UK doctors call for Israel's removal from World Medical Association |
| 2016-01-21 |
| [Iran Press TV] British doctors have called for the removal of Israel from the World Medical Association (WMA) over claims of "medical torture" on Paleostinians seeking treatment. Some 71 UK doctors have started to pressure the WMA to revoke the membership of the Israel Medical Association over claims that "our doctors perform medical torture on Paleostinian patients," said Ze'ev Feldman, the representative of the Israeli doctors, during a Knesset meeting held on the subject of boycotts against Israeli academic institutions on Wednesday. If the British physicians succeed, the Tel Aviv regime will be banned from taking part in international medical conferences and publishing in journals. The move follows similar measures launched by scholars around the world over the past few months. In December, over 200 South African scholars released a statement announcing their support of an academic boycott of Israel. |

| #5 And whether 200 of them is a minuscule quantity or pretty much all of them. I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess a South African scholar is someone who was either educated on Cecil Rhodes' dime, or went to Patrice Lumumba University. |

| #2 Well, Mr. Smith, I'm afraid you're going to die. You see, the only treatment for your condition was developed by Jewish doctors in Israel. But because the Medical Association is boycotting Israel, we refuse to use it. So sorry. I'm sure you understand. You wouldn't want to get those Jew cooties on you, would you now? |
