It notes the following:
Norwegian doctor Mads Gilbert entered the Gaza Strip several days before Israel launched its military offensive there. In the course of the operation Gilbert spoke to numerous media outlets, presented himself as "an objective physician" and repeatedly condemned the IDF's actions in Gaza.That's utter nonsense. It didn't recently become known. It was known since Foxnews published that news on January 8, 2009 and made public here on this blog, Confederate Yankee, and at LGF and elsewhere from the moment that propaganda video was first published. That was nearly a month ago.
However, it recently became known that Gilbert might have been less impartial than he claimed to be. The only Western doctor allowed into the Strip during the fighting is a member of the Norwegian socialist party Red, and a man who in the past expressed support for al-Qaeda's September 11 attack on the World Trade Center in New York.
Gilbert continues giving agitprop interviews in which he claims that of the hundreds of patients he treated, only two were fighters. How exactly does he know this to be the case? After the first day of airstrikes, Hamas was not wearing uniforms and blended in with the rest of the population. Hamas hid behind womens skirts and childrens' cribs. They were indistinguishable from the rest of the population but for the mortars and rockets fired at Israel, the guns that they carried, and their use of human shields.
