Head of doctors’ protests says Israel in a ‘dystopic reality’
Prof. Hagai Levine, head of the White Coats doctors protest group, tells anti-overhaul protesters in Netanya that Israel has fallen into a “dystopic reality.”
“Health workers in Israel oppose discrimination in treatment. We are currently in a dystopic reality. The Israeli government is controlled by dangerous extremists that support discrimination against women, the elderly, Arabs, secular people and homosexuals,” Levine who is also chairman of the country’s Association of Public Health Physicians, says.
“Whoever stays silent and supports discrimination and racism, in the end, it will be turned against him or her. The treatment is us — the nation. We still haven’t lost hope to be a free people in our own land,” he adds.
