Marvelous story, kudos to Prof. Or and the Israeli ingenuity. May this child and her family know only good days.

Eli ,   Israel   (05.12.12)
It's time the Jew Haters of the world realise that Boycotting Israel is Boycotting LIFE. Israel has many many more stories like these but the Nazi Leftist Media never speaks of them cause they are owned by Muslim Oil.

of course, silly. aren't we the best? most intelligent? most innovative and most genius? why should we not congratulate ourselves on all true facts above? we earned the right to this congratulation. just look at where we are just 63 years after the birth of this wonderful nation. we achieved the 17th best economy in the world. silly, you!

You are such a pillock. Where is it offensive to read a good news article. To be sure you and the rest of the cynics decry any and all achievements of the Jewish state. Of course with your mentality it would have been better not for the Jews to treat the girl and even better still perhaps to die at the hands of these doctors, then you would have been able to say how incompetant. Do you read this site merely to vent your prejudice; I believe so.

Why don't you ask the child's mother if she feels that we, as Jews, have the right to be proud? Of course, this could never happen in the United States because of the ban on using stem cells, even if they come from aborted foetuses. And the treatment can be delivered intramuscularly. I think the development is praiseworthy. If you don't -- well that's your problem. Like I said -- ask the little girl's mother how SHE feels.

truth ,   new york   (05.12.12)
of course.... after all, its the jewish brains that move the world forward. Why not acknowledge facts and just say "thank you"? someday, this technology will save american lives too. Strange that she did not go to that scientific hub of mecca, huh?

Israely from Turkey   (05.12.12)
You must be really sick in your head. We saved another LIFE, like we have done so many times without looking at the citizenship, race, religion or whatever of the ill person. Can't you understand that saving a LIFE is the greatest thing that one can do? And you cannot appreciate it simply because it was a JEWISH doctor who did it.
10. To: Truth at No. 8
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (05.12.12)
So accurate! I remember about two years ago, conjoined twin girls who were born in Gaza. They were joined at the chest in a comparatively easy way to separate, because they did not share any organs. The surgery could have been done in Israel, with excellent results but no, the Saudis decided they wanted to perform the surgery. The King of Saudi Arabia even sent one of his private jets to transport the little girls to the Kingdom. The little girls both died during surgery. 'nuff said, eh?

efman ,   la   (05.12.12)
Israeli's bio-technology and medical solutions are helping save American's lives every day! Educate yourselves people.

14. No one's better at putting laurels on their own...
Cameron ,   USA   (05.12.12)
head every week than you lot. One of those running constants on this site that is both fascinating and amusing.
15. What does Judaism have to do with this story?

16. To: No. 14
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (05.12.12)
Well, you're Irish, so I can understand. What have you lot done for the world since Yeats and Joyce? Oh, I know! You invented "kneecapping" and made priestly molestation of little boys a cottage industry. You must be SOOOOO proud! Some of us actually can claim achievements and accomplishments that matter. Climb aboard your barstool, have your Guinness (ick!) and contemplate that for a while.
17. To: No. 15
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (05.12.12)
More sour grapes from the anti-Semites. You cannot separate Medinat Israel from Am Israel. Don't even bother trying. Wherever in the world, do you think it mere coincidence that Jews rank in the forefront of medicine and technology? How about law and the arts? Think again.
18. To nr 15 - Who says Jewish faith has..
Alexander ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (05.12.12)
...something to do with this story? The story is about a 7 year old Romanian girl treated for a deadly genetical flaw at Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital which happens to be located in Jerusalem, which happens to be the capital of Israel and happens to be geographically located in Israel which happens to be the ancient, historical and modern national homeland of the Jewish people - both an ETHNIC/NATIONAL group of people AND a religion. That's why the story is about the treatment of a 7year old Romanian girl at an Israeli hospital.

solomon ,   bklyn   (05.12.12)
No one’s better than putting your foot in your mouth than you are. One running constant on this site is both the blind hatred you display and the garbage you spout. Don't stop now; we don't expect anything else from you.
20. you guys are so
anton ,   istanbul   (05.12.12)
full of yourselves :)
21. Most western nations can't even count their inventions...
Cynthia ,   Canada   (05.12.12)
...how pathetic for Israelis that they can. Anyone want to try to list the numerous miraculous treatments that come from the US, Canada, the UK, France, Germany? Of course you can't. They're too numerous to mention.
22. #2 Cameron is simply burning with envy!
Maurice ,   Montreal   (05.12.12)
Eat your heart out!
23. #16 on #14
Maurice ,   Montreal   (05.12.12)
Sarah don't bother with Cameron. He is not worth it. He is simply burning with envy! After all what have "his" people to show for humanity?
24. Sarah of #19
Cameron ,   USA   (05.12.12)
Am I to be judged by the ultimate spoonful of poison herself? Mind yer manners, or I'll summon the ghost to plague ye.
25. To nr 21 - Or maybe its the other way round
Alexander ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (05.12.12)
Maybe many western nations can't count their inventions because they are few or very limited, and Israel can count their inventions because they are many. Nobody tries to belittle the nations you just mentioned - they HAVE contributed to science, but why do you belittle Israel when Israel contributes to science? The answer: because we are Jews. You don't hate Jews or Israelis? You don't hate Israel? You're not anti-Semitic? So where does you hatred come from? What exactly is "pathetic" here? Israel developed a miraculous treatment that saved this little girl's life. Instead of rejoicing that Israel saved her life, you bully and mock Israel, because it is an ISRAELI invention. I also want to remind you that ICQ, Google, Youtube, Intel processors, cell phone technology (the cell phone was born in Israel), Bluetooth, many anti virus programs, much of the technology used for fighter jets, USB keys, drop irrigation technique are Israeli inventions. If you want to boycott Israel I suggest you shut down the te entire high tech society of the 21st century. Also, I wish to add that Israel has the 2nd highest number of high tech companies listed on the Nasdaq. Why is that if Israelis are so "pathetic"? What is truly pathetic is your Jew hatred, racism and jeaolusy. Where are your beloved 'Palestinians"? You can't use them in here as a pretext to hate Israel can you? You true colors of envy and jealousy shine right through. The existence of the computer the world owes to the Hungarian Jew John Von Neumann. Much of the knowledge in physics the world owes to the German Jew Albert Einstein. Much of the world's psychology analysis the world owes to a Jew called Sigmund Freud.
26. Sarah B @ 17 - Jews rank in the forefront of ,...
split ,   US   (05.12.12)
Care to list it on what forefront and what technology ? ,...
27. Thank you Mr Cameron
Lucky ,   USA   (05.12.12)
Really! Mr Cameron ... many thanks for bringing up the self congratulation. Without your mentioning it, nobody would think of it, for the simple reason. Because It's not a big issue in the Jewish Home state. The Israeli doctors saving life every day.
28. The reason why Cameron, anton and Cynthia hate...
Alexander ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (05.12.12)
...Jews/Israelis and the State of Israel: The answer is simple: ENVY! Some simple facts: During the Holocaust, when Jews were not exactly safe in this world, Jews still won 14 percent of Nobel Prizes in literature, chemistry, physics and medicine and physiology. In the second half of the 20th century, when Nobel Prizes began to be awarded to people from all over the world, Jews constituted 29% of all Nobel Prize winners. So far in the 21st century, it has been 32 percent. Jews stand for 51% of the Wolf Foundation Prizes in Physics, 28 percent of the Max Planck Medailles and 38 percent of the Dirac Medals for Theoretical Physics, 37% percent of the Heineman Prizes for Mathematical Physics and 53 percent of the Enrico Fermi Awards.

29. A great hug to Israeli science, medicine
Forever Israel   (05.13.12)
and humaneness. A great hug to the Romanian girl wishing her in Hebrew "Ad Mea Ve Esrim" ! For the likes of Cynthia, Anton and Camron who should learn some Hebrew it means "A long life till 120".
30. To nr 26 - Care to list where Arabs and Moslems...
Alexander ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (05.13.12)
...rank in the forefront - besides Jew hatred, beating up women, killing and discriminating ethnic and religious minorities, massacring millions of people in the name of Islam for 1400 years, conquering the Middle East, Africa, Europe and Asia for centuries in the name of Islam, shouting "death to Jews and Israel and America and the West" in the name of Islam, honor killings, genocides, civil wars, burning Israeli and American flags and having massive self flagellation ceremonies throughout the Moslem world and starting wars of aggression against Israel in 1948, 1956, 1967, 1973, 1982, 1990, 2006 and 2009? Oh, and let's not forget world wide Islamic terrorism. That's where Moslems really are at the forefront.
