A Palestinian-American doctor was fired from her position at Phoenix Children’s Hospital after an anti-Semitism watchdog called out her social media post accusing Israel of being based on “cannibalism,” JTA reported.
Last week, the Twitter account @StopAntisemites posted a screenshot of a Facebook post by Dr. Fidaa Wishah, which stated: “We will expose the #massacre and #genocide you Zionists are proud of.”
“We will uncover your thirst to kill our Palestinian children… A state based on atrocity, inhumanity, racism and cannibalism never lasts long!” she wrote. “Hey #israel… your end is coming sooner than you think.”
Wishah, a pediatric radiologist, was fired two days later,
“After a thorough review of the facts related to this matter, this individual is no longer providing care at Phoenix Children’s,” the hospital stated.
Wishah has deleted the anti-Semitic post from her Facebook account and posted a video of her saying that she is being “censored.”
“I want to thank everyone who’s standing by me and who’s standing with the cause,” she said in the video. “In a country that claims freedom of speech, when it comes to Palestine-Israel, we are definitely censored.”
Following the discovery of Wishah’s post, a blogger at Israellycool.com revealed the fact that Wishah’s father is Jaber Wisha, the former head of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, designated by the US as a terror group. An Israeli court sentenced Wisha to life in prison after he was convicted of planting a bomb and attempting to kill an IDF soldier. He was released in 1999 after serving 15 years.

There’s no shortage of evil to attribute to the abomination of Zionism and its State, but cannibalism just isn’t a part of that.
HaKatan, you indeed seem to have קטנות השכל to say, “There’s no shortage of evil to attribute to the abomination of Zionism and its State”. Shame on you. בושה וחרפה
If my (i) arithmetic and (ii) estimate of Dr. Wishah’s age and related date of conception are correct, then she was conceived while her father was in prison. This makes a strong case against conjugal visits for prisoners.
