The British Medical Practitioners Tribunal (MPTS) Service this week declined to suspend the license of an NHS doctor who called a UK hospital “a Jewish supremacy cesspit.”
Dr. Rahmeh Aladwan has made numerous rabid antisemitic and pro-Hamas statements, calling for the ethnic cleansing of Jews from Israel and stating that “the UK is occupied and controlled by Jewish supremacy–in fact most Christian countries.”
Aladwan also wrote: “I don’t condemn Hamas. I don’t condemn October 7. I don’t condemn armed resistance to the Occupation. I condemn ‘Israel.'”
She wrote on X: “not trying to be unreasonable, but every ******** settler will leave Palestine. It’s not for liberal Jewish supremacists (Zionists) or their enablers to decide that Palestinians must live with their land thieves, murderers, and rapists. Algeria did it. So will Palestine.”
UK Health Secretary Wes Streeting excoriated the decision, stating, “The racist language of ‘Jewish supremacy’ reflects the values of Nazis, not the NHS. I fail to see how medics using such language with impunity doesn’t undermine confidence in the medical profession. I have no confidence in our regulation system.”
