Passed away gradchild of Isma'il Haniyeh

Yes, because there are 2 million arab citizens of israel and 5 million arabs and palestinians under israeli control in occupied territories.

What hospitals do you expect them to go to, the Mayo Clinic?

Palestinians have their own hospitals, in case you didn't know.

Israeli doctors take to mind that those Palestinians they treat might just bomb their busses one day.

Do they get their own drinking fountains as well?

There's plenty of legitimate criticism of Israel's policies - but this isn't one of them.

There are Jewish only towns all over Israel, where Arab Israelis are not allowed to live.

Do you really think Arab Israelis are welcome there, except through the back door to do menial labor?

This is from an article in Haaretz 12/1/2013

WZO pushing new Jewish towns to 'balance’ Arab population in Israel's north

By*Zafrir Rinat

"The World Zionist Organization’s Settlement Division, which is defined by the government as one of its executive arms, is formulating a plan to settle more Jews in the Galilee to achieve a demographic balance with the Arab population. This would be accomplished by establishing new towns and expanding existing ones beyond the limits set in the national master plan for development."

There most definitely is segregation in Israel.

I'm talking about hospitals and doctors and their humanitarian efforts.

"Racist attitudes against Arabs are widespread in Israel. Numerous official policies segregate and separate Jews from Palestinians, with a vastly discriminatory effect and intent. Justifications alluding to security needs, or alleging that separation is based on citizenship rather than ethnic origin, do not withstand close scrutiny."

Segregation is addressed as residential segregation and legal segregation.

This one Haaretz article addresses multiple ways Israel denies and has denied needed medical care to Palestinians, including discussing an incident a man was thrown out of a hospital and left to die.

"But Eldar didn't mention that for decades, Israel systematically prevented construction of a medical system in the occupied territories, nor did he mention that Israel bars the transfer of medical equipment to Gaza that would enable sick children to be treated there."

"For that wounded Palestinian was thrown out of hospital, and a police patrol car, to die in the dark months before Operation Cast Lead in Gaza in December 2008."

I was commenting on Lips comment that palis have their own hospitals and should stay out of the jewish ones.

Maybe a better screen name for her would be Spuitende Duivel which in Dutch can be translated as "Spewing Devil" or "Spinning Devil",
