My brother Tasnim Raza, who is a surgeon, volunteered to go and help the wounded in Gaza but was told he would not be allowed to enter.
Dr. Mads Gilbert from Tromsø, Norway, was working at Al Shifa Hospital in Gaza during the last Israeli onslaught on Gaza. When he returned from Gaza to his home-town Tromsø on July 31, 2014, he went straight from the airport to give this spontaneous speech at a large solidarity demonstration for Gaza held at the same time.
