I am not Palestinian. I am a Jewish physician. Some of my ancestors survived pogroms but others did not. We lost cousins to the Nazis but found peace and safety in the U.S. I cannot be silent as Palestinian civilians are punished for crimes they did not commit. #NotInMyName

I'm not Palestinian. I am a Jewish Israeli Physician-Scientist. My people's history is of being excluded, discriminated, exterminated. My parents survived genocide. I cannot ignore the plight of Palestinians, their right to live in dignity, freedom, safety, peace. #NotInMyName

As a physician, I wonder what I'd do if a terrorist group holed up in my hospital's basement. Would I abandon my patients? If my hospital was destroyed and patients were killed to get to the terrorists, would I say, "well, I guess that was justified?" #DoctorsForPeace
