Elder of ZiyonPalestinian doctor shot dead by Israeli police in Jerusalem
JERUSALEM, Friday, September 10, 2021 (WAFA) – A Palestinian medical doctor was announced dead on Friday evening shortly after he was shot and critically injured by Israeli occupation forces in the old city of Jerusalem, according to witnesses.Israeli police officers reportedly opened gunfire at Dr. Hazem Joulani near Bab al-Majlis, one of the main gates of the Al-Aqsa Mosque, critically injuring him. The Israeli police also denied access of Palestinian civilians who attempted to provide him with first aid.The Palestinian Detainees Affairs Commission said Joulani, who was rushed to Hadasah Medical Center for treatment, was announced dead of his wounds a couple of minutes later.
No mention of why they might have shot him. (Or why any police officer would ever allow "civilians" to enter a crime scene to administer "first aid.")
Luckily, we have video of this doctor trying to stab an Israeli police officer. From three different angles.
Why would a doctor want to do this?
Perhaps he went crazy. Perhaps he was under investigation for something. Perhaps he was depressed and decided that being a "martyr" sounded pretty good.
All we know is that he decided to attack Jews. And Palestinians cheer that.
