Doctors Without Borders is an NGO that is supposed to be a non-political Samaritan organization, treating those in need of medical care in conflict zones, and in places where natural disasters have struck. It is supposed to be above politics. But a recent expose shows how Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières has turned into a pro-Hamas NGO. More on this can be found here: “INVESTIGATION – Doctors Without Borders: an NGO in a crisis of neutrality in the face of accusations of compromise,” translated from “ENQUÊTE – Médecins sans frontières : une ONG en crise de neutralité face aux accusations de compromission,” by Lara Tchekov and Anne-Flore Marie, Le Journal du Dimanche, November 3, 2024:
For the past year, MSF has been under fire for its communication, which is very biased in favor of Hamas. In Gaza, the NGO has eight hundred local collaborators, on whom it relies to supply the press with testimonies without being able to verify the information. Thus, at the beginning of the war between Israel and Hamas, MSF broadcast a fake news story about the attack on Al-Ahli hospital in Gaza that made the rounds of all the major international media. The association also claimed to be unaware that Al-Shifa hospital was used as a combat base by Hamas terrorists, despite the testimonies and videos posted on social networks showing hostages being taken by force by armed men in the corridors of the building.
Doctors Without Borders personnel in Gaza accused the IDF of launching a rocket that killed 500 civilians at the Al-Ahli Hospital. It turned out that it was not an Israeli rocket, but one that had been launched from Gaza at Israel by Palestinian Islamic Jihad and fell short, that caused civilian deaths at the Al-Ahli site. And that PIJ rocket did not land on the Al-Ahli Hospital, but on the parking lot outside the hospital. Finally, there were not “500” Gazan civilians killed, but only 50. The Doctors Without Borders members in Gaza knew all this, but chose to feed the international media a wild tale of the deliberate murder of 500 civilians inside a hospital by the IDF.
Doctors Without Borders has never condemned Hamas’ use of hospitals to hide its operatives and weapons. It has never condemned Hamas’ theft of massive amounts of humanitarian aid. It has never condemned Hamas’ use of civilians as human shields. It has never called for the release of the Israeli hostages. And at least fifty of the organization’s employees praised the October 7 attacks by Hamas, when 1,200 Israelis were tortured, raped, mutilated, and murdered. And some of its employees, such as Pedi Al-Wadia — an “expert in the production and use of missiles and rockets” — turn out to have been members of Hamas who took part in attacks on Israelis.
Dr. Hassan Abu Sita told the media about the “massacre of 500 civilians at Al-Ahli Hospital.” Meanwhile, on social media, he called upon Palestinians to “fight and die like the shahids.” The”shahids” are those Muslims who die fighting in a jihad. Should Dr. Abu Sita be encouraging Palestinians in Gaza to enroll in Hamas’ jihad against the Jews? Is that part of a doctor’s remit?
Jassen Abu Sha’ar, the vice president of Doctors Without Borders in France, called upon people on October 7, 2023 to “find out facts before condemning.” Yet when all the facts were known about the October 7 attack, Jassen Abu Sha’ar did not condemn the attacks. He remained silent.
Rima Hassan was a board member of Doctors Without Borders in 2021 and 2022. She is a Franco-Palestinian activist, a Rashida Tlaib-like figure in her antisemitic malevolence. She has accused Israel of “genocide” and called it a “nameless monstrosity,” a “fascist colonial entity” which “lies every day.”
Like those other NGOs, Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International, Doctors Without Borders is characterized by a deep anti-Israel animus. It’s good that the word is getting out about the false stories it has spread about the IDF in Gaza, about the refusal of its officers, such as its vice-president in France, Jassen Abu Sha’ar, to condemn Hamas’ October 7 atrocities, and on the fifty members of the organization who have done even worse — they have actually praised Hamas.
Those who donate to Doctors Without Borders, innocently assuming it is a purely Samaritan organization, ought to look into the misinformation it has spread about the IDF in Gaza, and the support within its ranks for Hamas, and choose to donate instead to a different medical group, such as the International Red Cross, or — just to make a point — Israel’s Magen David Adom.

It’s a shame to read this. Over the last year I have received several emails from Doctors – all containing false information as in your example. The leaders of Doctors have hijacked a known label with a reputation for performing good work throughout its history.
How/why would the volunteers – both current and former – allow this to happen?
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Even w/o MSF, I’ve lost my respect for the medical profession at large, after the heist they pulled on the world during Covid-19, as well as all the sex-change surgeries that they happily provide b’cos it enriches hospitals to the extent it does. Same goes for those woke doctors who consider themselves our moral betters for going across countries to cure the world, regardless of the political situation in any country
Has anyone read about MSF going to Donbass to treat Russian and Ukrainian combatants, or to Xinjiang to treat Uyghurs who are the target of a genocide by China? Or Bangladesh, where Hindus, Buddhists and Christians are being systematically persecuted?
Westman says
Perhaps it is because MSF is less likely to be bombed in Gaza than Ukraine and available international money is flowing there?

“Even w/o MSF, I’ve lost my respect for the medical profession at large…”
As a conservative physician, so have I.

Liars without borders is a better name for these ‘doctors.’
Westman says
I stopped contributing to this group when they left Kayla Mueller, their own volunteer worker, in the raping hands of ISIS’ Baghdadi and to eventual death when they had the opportunity to save her.

Are they bereft of more than borders? Their work, ironically, seems to take precedence over human life if it gets in their way. Maybe it’s the medical version of, “We had to destroy the village to save it.”
UNRWA turned out to be full of Hamas. Now, Médecins Sans Frontières, is the same. NGOs seem to be functioning as the “enemy within” Israel rather than as neutral humanitarians.

Sweden:
Two out of three murders are committed by people with an immigrant background
.
Between 2013 and 2017, around two-thirds of the murders, attempted murders and murders in Sweden were committed by immigrants or children of immigrants.
.
In addition, the number of shootings per capita in Stockholm is 30 times higher than in London, and the number of bombings has increased sharply in recent years. In 2023, Sweden suffered nine times as many fatal shootings as Finland, Denmark and Norway combined, states the report, which is based on public statistics.
.
Those born abroad are 2.5 times more likely to be registered as suspected of crime compared to those born in Sweden with both parents born in Sweden. For people born in Sweden with two foreign-born parents, the probability is over three times higher than for those with Swedish-born parents.
.
One of the latest trends in Sweden is BOMBINGS. That has largely been limited to Malmo, a city with a large Islamic population. Bombings are not random events, they are well planned.

Connecting the Dots
.
In 1917 the US Army began studying statistics, trying to work out the characteristics of a good soldier. They found that people tend to either have all three of the following characteristics or none of them.
.
• Higher IQ scores
• Work well in teams
• Less violent
.
There is a Federal Law in the US that prohibits any branch of the Military from accepting an employment application from someone until after they have proven that they have an IQ of 83 or higher.
.
Here are few examples of national average IQ scores:
.
Afghanistan, Jordan, Pakistan … 81
Indonesia, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Palestine … 80
Algeria, Saudi Arabia, Sudan … 77
Morocco … 71
Somalia … 69
Cameroon … 67
Ivory Coast … 61
.
If you have an IQ score close to or higher than the average of 100 for Western countries, you should be able to connect the dots and make a few assumptions from the above.

.
What came first the chicken or the egg ???
.
Is there a reason why Islam would be popular in countries with lower IQ scores ???
Or is it possible than Intelligence is simply not a highly valued a characteristic in Muslim nations ???
Don’t overlook the possibility that both above may be at play, creating a Vicious Circle or perhaps something akin to a Black Hole.
.
Here’s another puzzle. What came first, the attempts at Censorship, or the Sarcastic remarks ???

Excellent research.
Skeptiker says
Also, auch das überrascht mich nicht. Als ob Ärzte in ihren weißen Kitteln bessere Menschen wären. Sie genießen überall in der Welt einen Vertrauensvorschuß, der es ihnen ermöglicht, aus erster Hand Informationen über die jeweiligen Länder zu bekommen, in denen sie tätig sind. Diese Kontakte werden natürlich genutzt, um bestimmte Ideologien zu befördern. Und das es unter den Ärzten auch eine Menge skrupellose, den Hyppokratischen Eid mißachtende Mediziner gibt, ist spätestens seit Dr. Mengele ( Arzt-Verbrecher in Auschwitz) hinreichend bekannt.
Andrew Blackadder says
This NGO from France has gone down the same insanity as Amnesty International and others like it that were created decades ago and were actually doing great work…
However its a very different generation today.
Troybeam says
Doctors W/O borders, it all comes down to the $$$$$$$$$. Whom ever pays the best gets the best treatment, forget the oath to your medical license.
It always comes down to the money. Question is this…whose pockets does it goes.
