The fact that ICE officers prevented a doctor from rendering aid after fatally shooting an innocent woman is sick beyond measure.
As we press for accountability, it is important that all of us spread the facts of this brutal and unjustified killing far and wide.

"There was a young woman who'd take bread to the poor in a pitcher so the people of Sodom wouldn't see it. The matter was revealed, so they smeared her with honey, put her on a wall, and hornets came and devoured her... a woman killed for an act of kindness." (Talmud, Sanhedrin 109b, Steinsaltz ed.)

A doctor tried to provide aid to the woman and ICE agents pulled their guns on him and threatened to shoot him too if he didn't back away.
Let me repeat, ICE murdered a woman and then threatened to murder a doctor who tried to help her.

Most of the reputable footage and pictures of the starvation in Gaza (which Israel claims is not happening) came from Al Jazeera's team. Tonight 7 journalists, 5 from Al Jazeera, were killed by an Israeli strike targeting a press tent. Over 180 journalists have been killed in total. ~AdminMatt
