The case was initiated by UK Lawyers for Israel (UKLFI), a fanatical pro-Israel lobby group that seeks to use abusive legal procedures to intimidate and silence critics of Israel. But more disturbing still, the case was taken up by the General Medical Council (GMC), the regulatory authority overseeing the medical profession. Had the case been successful, Abu Sittah would have been struck off on the entirely spurious basis that he is antisemitic and a supporter of terrorism. **Hundreds of patients who depend on his world-renowned reconstructive surgery skills would have been denied treatment from him as a result. ** The three-person panel of the Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service, which cleared him, dismissed all the allegations. It concluded that the UKLFI and the GMC had “cherrypicked” and misrepresented two posts on X and an article published in Arabic, and failed to provide accurate translations of Abu Sittah’s arguments. Ian Comfort, chair of the panel, said the tribunal could find nothing antisemitic or that supported terrorism or violence. Afterwards, Abu Sittah correctly described UKLFI’s goal as “trying to destroy my life”.

Bolding mine. For everyone “uncomfortable” about things people/governments are doing to infringe on rights of the “othered” du jour, but still support these people and governments, consider how many your tacit support is robbing from others.
