This is the point AFP has decided to highlight with this picture? That Israel is pressuring palestinians seeking medical treatment to work as informers?
How about the fact that Israel is providing medical treatment and humanitarian aid to palestinians at all, all the time while palestinian terrorists are targeting Israelis for death? And, in some cases, at risk to our soldiers.
Oh, I remember now. We are dealing with the mainstream media here. And they have a particular narrative in mind.
