The article "The Shame of Israeli Medicine" examines the Israeli medical establishment's complicity in the country's violations of international law, highlighting how it aligns with Israel's colonial agenda. Co-authors Neve Gordon and Guy Shalev emphasize the ethical breaches occurring within Israeli medicine, particularly in the context of violence against healthcare workers in Gaza and the marginalization of Palestinian medical professionals. They advocate for an international boycott of Israeli medical institutions until Israel halts its colonial practices and provides Palestinians with self-determination.
"The Israeli medical establishment in general identifies with Israel's colonial project and puts the colonial project over the most basic ethical principles of their profession," says Gordon.
"The authors call for an international boycott of Israeli medical institutions, until 'Israel stops its colonial project, after the Palestinians receive liberation and self-determination.'"
