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

Aw, humor the postman.

There really ought to be an investigation. It might show some pretty weird things that Canada didn’t expect to see. Because Trudeau didn’t really understand our dear Pallie pals.

Investigate away.

It’s possible the “doc” got shot with rubber anti-rioter bullets. Which might not have even been aimed at him. Hence no blood later.

Maybe it’s just me but it seems a bunch of low cost stethoscopes probably cost less than a 3D printer. But who an I to stand in the way of progress?

...put yourself in a firing zone and you take the risk and responsibility of getting yourself hurt. period. end of file.
Canada desperately needs a new PM!!! This is far from his first excursion into the wrong side of things, he acts like a commie supporting the (leftist) IslamoNazi murder gangs...

albawaba.com is a moslim / hard-left propagandist media tool doing what moslim / hard-left propagandists do - provide oxygen for moslim / hard-left voices such as Trudeau. When posting such links you should really include a comment, something to the effect that this is just for our light relief.

Another change agent word smith....I see ya joined in 8/17 about the time Trump was just getting really started. Hate Israel do ya? Trying to get Freepers to feel ashamed of themselves, are ya? Go back to the Utah fusion center and tell them your cover is blown! Or go back to Stormfront if that is your passion, ya snake!

The muslim doctor should have stayed out of the line of fire;he is muzzi first not Canadian. The Geneva convention covers times of war... not so called violent protest actions with combatants wearing irregular uniforms! And don’t talk about Israel’s immorality without speaking of the thuggish actions of the Palestinians who hide behind regular families, counting on the morality of Israeli soldiers not shooting through the families to get at the thugs!

My guess is he was between where the bullet was fired and where it was going. That is just a guess though.

The fancy clothing doesn’t help much in the middle of a battle. The soldiers won’ deliberately shoot the guy but there are bullets flying around there.

Have an investigation, Israel will. And if it turns out this was deliberate, Israel will prosecute. Hamas didn't say all of those injured were their terrorists, just 80% of those killed. Most of the rest were participating in a violent act, but some likely like this Doctor weren't. I say likely because medical personel participating in terrorism isn't heard of that part of the world. In fact the founder of the PFLP which claims to be participating in the invasion along with Hamas was a Doctor. In their day in the 70s one of the most successful terror groups.

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?

One side says he was working as a medic treating wounded, with the implication that he had no role in the rioting or promoting rioting. And you believe them.

Keep in mind that al Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri is a surgeon.

Che Guevara was a medical doctor too.

When terrorist organizations look for leaders, they look for smart people, who are often doctors.

It is imperative we establish the facts of what is happening in Gaza.
