"What happens in Gaza is not confined to Gaza. After the Israel Defense Forces killed an appalling number of medical personnel in the war – 326 members of the medical professions had already been killed as of the end of February, according to United Nations statistics – soldiers are not hesitating to open fire at ambulances in the West Bank, either. Apparently, if it's permitted in the Gaza Strip, it's equally permitted in the West Bank"
Gideon Levy
"The driver of the vehicle, which was taking two men who had been wounded by settlers' gunfire to hospital, was killed. Here, you can't tell a story about armed militants hiding in hospitals and ambulances – here Israel simply wants a war in the West Bank, like the one in Gaza. Shooting from a distance of hundreds of meters into an ambulance that is traveling with its siren wailing is a war crime. Period"
