IDF Soldiers Save Palestinian Baby

The IDF has been unfairly demonized by the international community yet they go out of their way to save the lives of "palestinians". The reverse would never happen. This is the vast difference between Israel and her enemies in that they have a moral obligation, based on Jewish values, to save lives regardless of who they are. Israel's enemies have no such moral or ethical code.

An IDF force was alerted Monday to treat a Palestinian woman who went into labor near the Jordan Valley. The soldiers helped move the woman to a military ambulance where she gave birth.



The infant, who had difficulty breathing, was resuscitated and then evacuated to a Jerusalem hospital by helicopter. "There is a great deal of satisfaction in giving life," Sergeant Gilad Nesher, a paramedic who treated the woman and child, told Ynet.

At around 2 am the IDF received a call about a Palestinian woman in labor. A medical task force, which included a paramedic and three army medics, was led by Lieutenant-Colonel Shalom Eisner to the scene.


The soldiers said it was very dark and that at first they had trouble locating the woman, who was in a tent on high territory inaccessible by car.


The soldiers took action, handing the Palestinians a stretcher and other medical tools and the woman was brought to the waiting ambulance.


"She was relatively calm," recounts Sgt. Nesher. "We put her in the ambulance, then we performed an initial test and found she was in the final stages of labor. We had to begin the process as soon as possible."
