Canary Mission Exposes Palestinian-American Doctor Who Threatened To Poison Her Jewish Patients
Frontpagemagazine ^ | January 2, 2019 | Ari Lieberman

Posted on 01/02/2019 5:44:33 AM PST by SJackson

“Doctor” Lara Kollab learns the hard way that the internet is forever.

Those who enter the medical profession do so for a number of reasons. Some do so for the prestige that comes with being a doctor while others join the profession for its pecuniary rewards. Many have an innate love for the practice of medicine and truly desire to dedicate their life’s work toward healing the sick. Often, it is a combination of all these factors.

There are of course, occasional genetic mutations within the human gene pool that produce insidious individuals whose motivations for entering the medical profession are nothing but malevolent. They are a rare breed but unfortunately, do exist. One such individual was Joseph Mengele, a Nazi doctor who conducted unfathomable brutal medical experiments on his unfortunate Jewish victims during the Holocaust.

Another such individual is the rabidly anti-Semitic Lara Kollab, a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine, who graduated in 2018 and received her DO degree from Touro College of Osteopathic Medicine. Kollab’s social media history is replete with anti-Semitic canards and conspiracy theories.

According to online sources, Kollab was employed as a supervised resident at the Cleveland Clinic. According to a statement released by the Clinic, Kollab only worked there from July 2018 and was terminated in September 2018. The Cleveland Clinic stated that Kollab’s views are in no way reflective of the views of the Cleveland Clinic.

Kollab is not Mengele but her past social media profile, laced with vile anti-Semitic calumnies and conspiracy theories, is worthy of another infamous Nazi, Joseph Goebbels. Kollab, who is a supporter of the Hamas terrorist group, claims that Zionists control the media and Israel “runs America.” She routinely refers to Jews as “dogs,” and often expresses the desire to carry out violence and inflict harm on Jews. She frequently trivializes the Holocaust or questions its veracity. But what truly stands out as perhaps her vilest tweet – and there were many – was the one where she expressed her desire to provide her Jewish patients with the wrong medication in an effort to injure or kill them. Mengele anyone?

Was she joking when she make this comment? Perhaps, but the reader should bear two things in mind. It is difficult to separate this comment from the trove of anti-Semitic comments found on her public social media profile. Her hatred of Jews is palpable and it is not a stretch to believe that she is capable of inflicting harm on those she collectively believes to be her enemy. Second, even if the comment was made in jest – and there is every reason to think otherwise – one has to question Kollab’s judgement and mental stability. What rational thinking person, let alone a medical professional, would make such a repugnant statement, in a public platform no less?

The Hippocratic Oath is an oath taken by physicians to uphold certain ethical standards and remains a rite of passage for medical graduates in the civilized world. Needless to say, a doctor who swears to adhere to the Oath may not purposefully inflict harm on his or her patient. Kollab expressed to the entire world via social media her convoluted desire to do the exact opposite.

Medical doctors who have been exposed to Kollab’s social media profile have expressed outrage that she still maintains a medical license. Some called for the immediate termination of her employment, and revocation of her license. As noted, the Cleveland Clinic has already complied with this request but the question of licensing will likely be the subject of a disciplinary investigation before any revocation action is taken.

Kollab’s Alma mater, Touro College, also released a statement expressing shock that one of its former students would express views “that are antithetical to Touro and to the physicians’ Hippocratic Oath.” Touro further noted that they were “appalled” by Kollab’s anti-Semitic comments and added that “the mission of Touro College is to educate, perpetuate and enrich the historic Jewish tradition of tolerance and dignity.”

Canary Mission, an online watchdog group that monitors the social media platforms of anti-Semites and racists, exposed Kollab’s rancid social media profile, which was already public. Canary Mission merely screenshotted and codified her profile. Once Kollab realized that Canary Mission was on to her, she frantically began wiping out her public online social media history and deactivated accounts, including Instagram, Twitter, Facebook and Linkedin. But Canary Mission beat her to the punch and was able to save the data.

Unfortunately for Kollab, but fortunately for the rest of us, the internet doesn’t easily disappear and the stench of Kollab’s vile Jew-hatred and racism will follow her wherever she goes. We all owe a debt of gratitude to Canary Mission for exposing this rot and possibly saving lives.

I am going against the flow.

She should not lose her license because of evil social media posts.

The State should not take speech on social media posts into account for official actions.

This is an extension of using "hate speech" to isolate and remove from society those people the left wishes to remove, without appeal or due process.

The Left is actively pursuing removing anyone who is seen as conservative from society. They are working hard to disallow anyone who expresses a conservative opinion from using a credit card. They are working hard to limit what conservatives can purchase.

This is a slippery slope we do not want to go down.

Yes, this can be published. Yes, most institutions will shun this woman. That is allowed. It is also freedom.

The apparatus of the State should not be used for this.

Given a medical degree by a fine university founded and funded by Jews. Tragic waste - and yes it’s time to stop trying to reach out to and helping Satanic savages

Liberal anti-Semite honoring an oath? You’ve got to be kidding. Next you’ll tell me the Pope is Catholic.

There is a very short distance from being an anti Zionist to being an overt anti Semite. Since Obama made anti Zionism a position to be held by Democrats in good standing and leadership positions, many overt anti Semites posture as anti Zionists. In the case of young Dr. Lara suspect she is a hateful, foolish, unsophisticated person who was working with and supervised by Jewish peers and physicians. She no doubt realized she was not up to standard, became very intimidated and resentful. Yet the politically correct power structure at Cleveland Clinic will not fire her. After some “counselling” and a phony apology she will be allowed to finish her training. Ultimately she will treat patients.

Never heard of anyone joking about harming a person by deliberately hurting a patient. I don’t even remember a student back in my college days of anyone saying they wished to harm a patient. Medicine is serious life and death work. Not as many years as you but if anyone said or wrote something like that it would be taken to the highest levels. This is a very disturbing story.

Free speech is one thing. She has every right to write about nefarious thoughts and ideas but if there is intent to harm or kill and the person is in a position to harm and kill should not the person be held to the ethical standard of their profession? After reading such words would you if Jewish take a chance on having this woman as your doctor?

Out of curiosity, why is Lara the only individual listed on the Canary Mission website, that is quoted in the article as the source for this?

Probably because the quotes quoted are hers, she's the source.

Wanna bet her E&O Liability carrier is having fits.

Today and in the future. I'm not sure about pulling her license over an old quote with no followup action. But I wouldn't trust her, my guess most people wouldn't and from a liability perspective, who would want to defend a complaint from any nonpalestinian, much less a Jew.

I'm not sure about pulling her license over an old statement, though I don't know the standards that apply. Is being a stain on the medical profession enough? Would be for an employer. Probably enough to cause a long suspension of a law license. So maybe. However I can understand that no one would want to employ her, nor a company insure her, given her statement. What bothers me, she's been posting this stuff on Facebook, Twitter, and less well known sites for years. Leaving Facebook and Twitter out of it, they're busy monitoring conservative political speech. But amongst what I presume are many friends and followers, no one cared enough to complain Her employer, hopefully, never checked. Clearly amongst the professional community she inhabits, no big deal here.

They did fire her. Whether she’ll find another place to continue her career, we’ll see, I suspect she’s largely unemployable in a patient treatment context, and maybe uninsurable.

“I’m not sure about pulling her license over an old statement, though I don’t know the standards that apply”.

Apparently she did not meet the standards of the Cleveland Clinic
who employed her. As she no longer works there.

Let her practice her terrorist medicine in a Arab $hit hole.
Not in the U.S.

Don’t know either. Once a person called an awry out of control patient a retard. That was all it took. Twenty-three years on the job and the nurse was gone. There were no lasting affects on the patient because patient was indeed retarded/developmentally disabled. I’m afraid to say I laughed.

I haven’t researched her, but she was only at the Cleveland Clinic since September or so. I suspect that means she was a medical student and not actually employed prior to that, and a college student before that. It sounds as if the medical school didn’t monitor social media, and honestly I’m not sure that they really can do that. I do know that employers now frequently will check out job candidates’ social media. Social media will sometimes show things you really don’t want in an employee, such as saying nasty things about an employer.

This would come under the area of ethics, maybe “moral turpitude” if that’s still included in the standards. Even if her license doesn’t get pulled, I don’t see her being employable nor insurable in the US.

Her friends and followers who never expressed concern about what she said? I expect that they are people who have the same sort of beliefs. I actually doubt that many of her fellow physicians would be found in that group, or would consider what she was saying acceptable.

She was a relatively new resident. Clearly they didn’t check social media, which is fine. Seems to me that at any company statements like this would impact the companies reputation in a negative way, which in most states would be enough to terminate her. However a threat to mis prescribe medication goes to the core of her job responsibilities. Like a teacher posting his/her intent to molest students. Yes I think she pretty much blew her career in this country. She was born in Cleveland, I wonder how long here family has been here. It seems to take awhile, generations, to outgrow the hatreds of their native land.

Added to above post: Sounded bad. I laughed at the irony. There was no derision in the laughter. Appeared the hospital found an excuse to fire a person who also had no anger, was just tired of said patients throwing sh*t balls at said nurse.

The doc who posted such things does not sound like a joke. as she has a little bit of history and the words written are a warning sign? Don't know how anyone can laugh it away unless she keeps her license. Then I'll laugh at the irony.

I suspect she probably seems very Americanized to most people. That kind of hatred isn't something most people exhibit to the general public.

A lot of younger people still don't seem to grasp that there should be no expectation of privacy when it comes to social media. Anything you put out there, is out there, somewhere, with the possibility that it can be found and made public. At least, that's the way it behooves one to behave.

I've read of nurses losing their jobs for posting things relating to patients in social media. I've heard of other people not getting jobs they've gone after due to pictures and comments they've posted. If you are in a medical field, the best thing to post, regarding your job, is nothing at all. A HIPAA violation need not include someone’s name, if there is sufficient detail to identify anyone.

The young woman in question might be allowed to practice medicine somewhere like the Middle East, but I suspect she would not enjoy the experience. I can't think how she would be employable here in the US. Sometimes people with medical training can get jobs in research or medical sales, but I doubt anyone would be willing to trust her under these circumstances.
