Israeli doctors operate on Iraqi baby

cnn.com

Extract from the article: <font color=green>"HOLON, Israel (AP) -- Israeli doctors operated on an Iraqi baby girl for 10 hours Wednesday, trying to correct a potentially fatal heart defect.

Bayan Jassem was born just over a week ago near Kirkuk in northern Iraq with the arteries to her heart reversed. An American military doctor with the occupation forces discovered the infant's problem and matched her parents up with the Israeli organization "Save a Child's Heart."

Last Friday, Jassem and her parents began the trek from Baghdad by airplane to Amman and then by car to the border with Israel, which they crossed Tuesday."<font color=black>


I wonder how they were able to get the Iraqi baby past Arafat's thugs? Israel still has the problem of being able to transport the baby safely back, past the Palestinians, to Iraq.
