Activist provides evidence Bil’in protester died from gas

[TomClash]

Israeli Jonathan Pollack presents hospital, Red Crescent documents countering IDF claims that Palestinian woman died of cancer.

Israeli activist Jonathan Pollak presented the media with three documents Tuesday to counter IDF claims that a Palestinian protester had died from cancer and not from the tear gas she inhaled at Friday’s anti-barrier demonstration in Bil’in.

Pollak e-mailed to the media a copy of a report from the Red Crescent ambulance and the Palestine Medical Complex in Ramallah, as well as a copy of CT scan from the Shafey Diagnostic Center in Ramallah.

The IDF has not presented any documentation to back up its claims. It is continuing to investigate the incident.

1. well IDF says it's so shouldn't that be enough?

:sarcasm:

[hayu_lol]

2. Article says that they ran a CT scan of her head...

it did not say that the scan was of her lungs. No autopsy report. Further, no mention if she was administered oxygen in the ambulance ride(30 minutes). Lots of missing pieces in the treatment section. Gas still listed as an unknown gas.

Article goes on to say that she had no pre-existing conditions. Asthma--she was known to have been asthmatic...difficulty in breathing, choking, unable to get her breath.

So, who knows.

She probably should not have gone to this demonstration. According to many of the articles that have been linked for this story, this demonstration was a sort of annual rite that has taken place for at least 5 years.

One side says that THIS is the truth; the other side says that THAT is the truth. Doubt that we will ever learn the truth.

3. The lastest everchanging claim (s) made by IDF was Leukemia

which is generally not found in a CT scan, however it should be noted IDF has told several stories concerning the death of this women, while the Palestinians have remained steadfast
