Breaking Points: Gaza Doctors, Hospital Attacks, and the Human Cost of War

The discussion explores Dr. Ahmad’s Palestinian family history, the targeting of hospitals and healthcare workers, the Nasser Hospital siege, and the claim that 1,700 Palestinian healthcare workers have been killed. It also covers the scrutiny Dr. Ahmad faced after returning to the U.S., including DHS secondary screening and questions that felt like racial profiling.
