"The Israeli Medical Association condemned the law, saying force-feeding was tantamount to torture, and urged doctors not to participate.".... BBC News
I guess that more than a few doctors have forgotten the oath they learned in school.
"Practice two things in
your dealings with disease: either help or do not harm the patient"
...... Epidemics, Book I, of the Hippocratic school
Please send an email to the Israeli Medical Association saying "I agree with you in condemning the force feeding of prisoners."
And while we are at it.... let's send an email to the American Psychological Association who allow its members to participate in the "Enhanced Interrogation" (ie. torture) of supposed terrorists in American custody.
The email need not be long... just tell them "Shame on you and your psychologists for participating in interrogation torture."
