Most Jews don't follow the Halacha, According to what I've read about 7% of Jews in the US are orthodox and about 42% are conservative. Do you think that about 7% or 49% of Jewish doctors would refuse to save non-Jewish lives? This would seem a reasonable estimate if what you've asserted about their religion is true. I also read that 15-20% of Jews in Israel are orthodox. So what percentage would you think would refuse to treat dying Gentiles? My own guess is the percentages would be 0%. It's generally said that Bin Ladin doesn't represent most Muslims and I hope that's true. So isn't it misleading to represent an extremist like the Goldstein guy you mentioned as being representative of the Jewish religion?
