Meet Tarek Loubani, the Canadian Doctor Shot by Israeli Forces Monday While Treating Gaza's Wounded (Transcript)
As Palestinians vow to continue protesting against the Israeli occupation of Gaza, we speak to a Canadian doctor who was shot by Israeli forces in both legs Monday [May 14] while he was helping injured Palestinians. Israeli forces shot dead at least 61 unarmed Palestinian protesters taking part in the Great March of Return Monday, including one doctor. Canada, Britain, Germany, Ireland, and Belgium have called for an investigation into the killings. The United Nations Human Rights Council has announced that it will hold a special session Friday to discuss escalating violence in Gaza. We speak with Dr. Tarek Loubani, an emergency room medical doctor, one of 19 medical personnel shot in Gaza on Monday.

Oh, I get what you're saying now. Miss-understood the first post...
Although.....I disagree. Saying "this isn't my fault" while you are pulling the trigger doesn't absolve someone of guilt.

They had 'protective custody' 2000 years ago. Remember the apostle Paul? But leave that aside.
The parent post is correct -- washing hands does not leave you with clean hands. The hands that held the whip, thorns, spikes and spear were Roman.
