Trudeau Demands Probe of Why Israeli Soldiers Shot Canadian Doctor in Gaza
Albawaba News ^ | 05/17/2018

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has called for an investigation into why Israeli soldiers shot a Canadian doctor in Gaza.

Dr. Tarek Loubani was in the Gaza Strip Sunday providing medical services to protesters when Israeli soldiers shot him multiple times in his legs. Loubani, who was wearing clothing that identified him as a medical services provider, survived the shooting,

The incident happened during a protest against the U.S. embassy opening in Jerusalem in which Israeli soldiers killed at least 59 Palestinians and wounded many others.

"Canada deplores and is gravely concerned by the violence in the Gaza Strip that has led to a tragic loss of life and injured countless people," Trudeau said in a statement. "We are appalled that Dr. Tarek Loubani, a Canadian citizen, is among the wounded -- along with so many unarmed people, including civilians, members of the media, first responders, and children."

Trudeau added: "Reported use of excessive force and live ammunition is inexcusable. It is imperative we establish the facts of what is happening in Gaza. Canada calls for an immediate independent investigation to thoroughly examine the facts on the ground -- including any incitement, violence, and the excessive use of force.

Loubani is an emergency physician at the London Health Sciences Centre in Ontario, Canada, according to the Toronto Star. He was working with the Shifa Hospital in Gaza when he went to the protest location to provide emergency medical attention to victims who were attacked by the Israeli Defense Forces

Perhaps the Israeli soldier who shot the doctor needs more training. He should have shot the terrorist sympathizer doctor in the head.

Israel proved many years ago that they will not hesitate to fire upon an ally they perceive to be a threat. Who can forget the Israeli attack on the USS Liberty in broad daylight and with the ship flying an American flag?

First of all there is no evidence other than his own words that he was clearly identified as a medic. He was there to participate in an attempted invasion of Israel. The fact that they shot him in the legs just goes to prove that Israeli snipers are both humane and damn good shots.

Also they showed a video of some of the 59 Palestinians who were killed. Some of them were still moving and laughing about it.

If you believe that Israeli soldiers are deliberately targeting innocent Palestinians then you are a useful idiot for the MSM.

Israel is showing incredible restraint. The Palestinians are sacrificing women and children to get good press from the fools in the Media. The fact that you believe their propaganda means that it works.

Let’s all wait till the investigation. Reading the Dr.s description of what happened, it could be a Palestinian shot him as a false flag.

Not healthy looking like a doctor in an area where terrorists routinely use medical symbolism as camouflage, and human shields as cover.

Hi Newb. I smell ozone.

Think about the ambulance that was destroyed?

Hamas admitted the people were members of their military wing.

Guess what was in the ambulance?

Oh. By the way, the medic (fake physician). His photos were all over the internet of his "injury." Laying on an ER table. IV bag for the extra effect. Funny. He was holding the bag below his heart. No backup of blood in the IV tube. No blood on his legs or "SHOES. Perfectly clean shoes. Still had his shoes on. Do you have a clue why that picture is very medically wrong? Do you have a clue about anything?

Final point before you are overcome with ozone. When did Hamas agree to the "Geneva Convention?" Who is Hamas?

Call me old-fashioned,but

I'll call you a lousy anti-semetic retread troll and Zot bait.

What does Trudeau think those ‘demonstrators’ would have done if they had entered Israel? Gone shopping at the mall? Gone to a movie? Or would they have started killed as many Jews, including women and children, as they could find?

Islamists are ethically allowed to lie, just like the FIB Very Special Agents.

“OK, just so as we are all on the same page here, it’s ok to shoot clearly identified medics treating wounded in a conflict zone is it?”

You know he was clearly marked as a medic - how? In the midst of black smoke, terrorists, thousands of people? Whose word are you taking. Yes it is those Israelis again.

Perhaps you are a troll?

Yep. The funny thing is Hamas publicly admitted that 50 of the 62 killed were their "terrorists." Their word was terrorist. The western media was the one that corrected them and told them they were peaceful demonstrators.

Looks like the snipers knew who was leading the breach. Some have claimed the GCC was also involved in the intel effort and boots on the ground in the Gaza.

Trudeau loves him some Pallywood.

There has never been a good explaination of that action.

Hate begets hate. Does Rachel Corrie ring a faint bell? The patron saint of IHOP?

They are Palis. It's not like they are human. These are the ones who danced and passed out candies on 9/11. They lie, about everything. What are the chances this savage animal was wearing a medical brassard that was getting in the way of his rock throwing arm?

to provide emergency medical attention to victims who were attacked by the Israeli Defense Forces

Stopped reading right there. The victims in reality are the Israelis. And it is Israel that is being attacked. Screw any reporters who write fake reports.

What evidence is there he’s not aligned with terrorists?? He was already jailed by Egypt for being part of the Muslim Brotherhood. Even in the best construction, he was providing medical assistance to Hamas terrorists, not “protestors.”

And look at the photos of him in the hospital. What did the IDF shoot him with, a BB gun?

Looks like another Pallywood production to me.

Even this was not until diplomatic appeals to the USA had failed, and after it was clear the Liberty was leaking intelligence to live foes. It wasn’t a blind rage.

By all means have an investigation. Canada won’t want to be associated with the fellow once it’s been investigated.
