Why Israel Is Saving Syrian Rebels
(Maclean's-Canada) Terry Glavin - On a hospital bed at the Ziv Medical Center in Safed, Israel, a Syrian rebel called Ramadan told me: "All my life I was told Israel is my enemy. I grew up like that, to believe that Israel is the devil. But all the world is against us, and only Israel is our friend. The world is killing us. Israel is saving us." More than 3,000 Syrians have been taken in by Israeli hospitals over the past four years. When the Syrians are discharged from hospital and brought back to the Syrian border, great care is taken to conceal the Israeli origin of everything in the "care packages" they're given. No Hebrew lettering on medications. No evidence of Israeli origin on anything.
