Why Does Ziatün Have A "Protect Doctors" Sign In Their Window?

Why does Ziatün have the “Protect Doctors” sign in their window? Because Ziatün is a Palestinian-owned eatery that highlights systematic murders of Palestinians and now Lebanon by Israel in the “Greater Israel” vision, which is to exterminate others in a Zionist quest for dominance. Currently in Lebanon, doctors and paramedics are being targeted while they rush to help people. If you didn’t see it live, as many of us did in January 2024, you’ll see it in the Brad Pitt and Joaquin Phoenix backed film, “The Voice of Hind Rajab,” where the little Palestinian girl Hind’s family was murdered in her car as she was on a 911 call, and then the paramedics who came to save them were also shot multiple times by Israeli IDF and died.
