In a story not mentioned in any other Milwaukee commercial news-source (JSOnline, Channels 4, 6, and 12), Channel 58 reports that a group met at the Hayat pharmacy and denounced Israel's wartime praxis with Gaza hospitals.
That's taking a risk; supporters of Israel will not be pleased.
...The Associated Press also reported that Israeli troops stormed inside of Gaza's largest hospital earlier in the week, after claiming Hamas had turned the facility into a command center, complete with weapons stockpiles and tunnel entrances. Both Hamas and Gaza health officials have denied those claims.
“Basically, a death sentence for all these people who are in an intensive care unit and the preemies who needed those medications," said Dr. Hashim Zaibak, the CEO of Hayat Pharmacy. "A lot of them have already died and some of them, whoever is still alive today, is probably going to be dying in the next couple days.”
Others said these attacks are targeting some of society's most vulnerable groups.
“In this scenario, Israel is specifically targeting the weakest people and the weakest of civilians which of those are women and children," said Dr. Roa Qato, an OBGYN in Milwaukee. “Sometimes it’s unimaginable to go into labor without access to pain management let alone basic necessities of healthcare... This isn’t an earthquake; this is not a hurricane that caused demolition of hospitals and lack of access to facilities. This is a human-made catastrophe funded by our US tax dollars.”...
Israel has admitted to turning off the electricity, water, and the internet in Gaza. Never mind the questions surrounding that hospital; turning off the water and electricity speaks volumes about Israeli brutality.
Look for a subtle drumbeat of negative rumors and stories about Hayat and a change in advertising sponsors at Channel 58.
