>>Baruch Goldstein was a fanatic who slaughtered 29 Arabs, who believed a Jewish doctor should not save the lives of non-Jews, and who received a massive amount of support throughout Israel for his actions and beliefs.<<

I recall Goldstein's actions being roundly condemned in Israel as those of a madman. He did have some zealots who supported him.

My quarrel is with anyone quoting that lunatic Shahak who wanted to leave the impression in the minds of ignorant people that Jewish doctors do not treat non-Jewish patients. Why didn't Shahak write: "One Jewish madman wouldn't treat non-Jewish patients, but history is replete with stories of Jewish physicians here and abroad who work tirelessly to save patients of every race, creed, and color. This includes the founder of Doctors Without Borders."

Of course, no one would ever accuse Shahak of presenting both sides of a story. He was unbalanced, in every sense of the word.
