Israel won't pay medical bills for Jewish-American activist who lost eye in police attack on flotilla protest
Israel is refusing to pay the medical bills for American-Israeli pro-Palestine activist, Emily Henochowicz. She lost an eye after being hit in the face by a tear gas canister on a protest against the flotilla massacre. Such are the limits of Zionism, even on its own terms: a state, but only for Jewish people that agree with us. The incident happened at the Qalandia checkpoint on the West Bank, just south of Ramallah where demonstrators were confronting border police.
The Israeli government is refusing to pay the cost of medical care for an American-Jewish activist who lost an eye when Border Police officers fired a tear gas canister at her during a demonstration.
Emily Henochowicz, who is studying at the Bezalel Academy of Art in Jerusalem and also holds Israeli citizenship, took part in a protest on May 31, shortly after Israel killed nine pro-Palestinian activists in a raid on a Gaza-bound aid flotilla. more
