The World Needs to Know the Truth

A piece titled "A Question of Blood," written by Dan Gordon, appeared in The Jewish Journal on May 24, 2002. Dan Gordon is a former sergeant in the IDF (Israeli Defense Forces), the author of five books, and a screenwriter. He was in Jenin on April 16, and was told a story by Dr. David Zangen, chief medical officer of the Israeli paratroop unit that bore the brunt of the fighting in Jenin. Dr. Zangen said that the IDF not only worked to keep the Palestinian hospital open, but they even offered blood for the wounded Palestinians. The Palestinians, however, refused because it was Jewish blood!

The Israelis, who could not have been faulted for saying, "If you don't like it, do without …" instead flew in 2,000 units of blood from Jordan via helicopters. In addition, they facilitated the delivery of 40 units of blood from the Mukasad Hospital in East Jerusalem to the hospital in Ramallah, and another 70 units to the hospital in Tul Karem. And on top of that, they oversaw the delivery of 1,800 units of anti-coagulants that had come from Morocco.

Dan Gordon concludes thus: "So the question to ponder … is how do you negotiate with a hatred so great that it will refuse to accept your blood, even to save its own people's lives? How does an international community vilify a nation that offers its own blood to its enemies, while its own soldiers lie dying, and that, when faced with race hatred that brands their blood unfit, diverts military flights to bring blood more suitable to the taste of those who would destroy them?"

Please share the above information. The world needs to know the truth—whether it wants to or not!
