1. Doesn't add up

If Rahat was the first place where the polio virus was discovered, wouldn't it be the main location of the immunization campaign??
2. Pale, weak and unacceptable excuses!

3. The van only do pick-ups not deliveries.
Golden Dome ,   Washington, USA   (08.07.13)
If the Bedouins made their organs available then the Health Ministry would give them all the attention in the world. But not so much to deliver health care to the Bedouins .
4. Free Press Good

5. #1 you are right
israel israeli ,   tel aviv   (08.07.13)
You are right, it doesn't add up. The truth is that many of the Bedouin were told by extreme Left activists that the vaccinations will cause polio. When the Bedouin don't show up for the vaccines, the same Leftists delegitimize Israel. As long as Israel uses an "Iron Fist" against Zionists instead of the Leftist NGOs, this is what happens.
6. Oh, please!

You know what? Humanitarianism goes but so far. Here you have a community -- Arabs, Bedouin -- who routinely refuse to allow their children to be inoculated against anything -- and now they complain? Wretched ingrates. As long as MY children -- and all JEWISH children are inoculated against such dreadful diseases, I do not care a whit about what may or may not happen to potential terrorists. Let their children get sick and die. If their primitivity exists to such an extent, let the Arab and Bedouin communities fend for themselves. Perhaps the United Nations can come and spend the billions required to inoculate everyone. Israel looks after its own. If Arabs living in Israel greet inoculation programs with suspicion and mistrust, perhaps they should move elsewhere -- to Saudi Arabia, or Jordan, or Lebanon, or anywhere else -- where people routinely die of entirely preventable diseases. These primitive Arabs have NO right to endanger Jewish children. This, by the way, is the first time they have complained about the State of Israel's launch of widespread inoculation campaigns -- mostly, they tend to complain that Israel is trying to kill their babies -- then perhaps they really ought to find greener pastures elsewhere. (Good luck with the greener pastures part.) I am tired of seeing Israel vilified for Arab and Bedouin bad acts. Now that it is (finally!) in the news, let the Arabs and Bedouin explain why they have consistently refused to allow their children to be inoculated against polio, diphtheria, pertussis and tetanus. And should Israel make these inoculations mandatory, I have no doubt that the international community will rise up in anger and accuse Israel of interfering with the rights of the Arab and Bedouin people! My children have been inoculated. Because of despicable Arab and Bedouin sanitary habits, they have also had to endure around six rounds of inoculations against cholera. And heaven knows WHAT else. If the Arabs and Bedouin wish to kill their children, fine. Let them. Less murderers, thieves and despicable rock-throwers for us to deal with. As long as Jewish children continue to be inoculated and protected, I don't give a flying f**k what the Arabs and Bedouin choose to do with respect to their offspring. If they don't care, why should I?
7. But Sarah
DZ ,   Tel Aviv/US   (08.07.13)
You live in Brooklyn, so how are Bedouin Arab a danger to your children? Cholera outbreaks haven't occurred in US in over 100 years and vaccine is not routine in US nor Israel. You are either lying through your teeth or severely confused. The vaccines are only administered to children with HIV to prevent severe diarrhea and dehydration. I used to enjoy hearing your point of you, now I realize you are a delusional liar.
8. To 7

Whoever you are, I love you! This Sarah B. is a nuisance and her billigerent and condescending rants are constantly polluting this forum. I enjoy reading Ynet and try to do so daily but her comments serve as a detergent!
9. Bedouin = non-jew = no vacine.

The tenets of the Torah being followed.

11. CDC reports that injectable polio vaccine has SV40 cancer
Rivkah   (08.12.13)
virus. The oral polio vaccine has squalene which is carcinogenic, aluminum and thiomerosol mercury which are neurotoxic, pig's blood which is unclean and takes away the supernatural protection of HaShem. Whether the oral vaccine has cancer virus or HIV or other toxic adjuvants is unknown by me but since that is in other vaccines, it is likely. The types of cancer that reflect SV40 cancer virus are mesotheliomas, and some types of non-Hodgkins lymphomas. That means Jackqueline Kennedy Onassis was likely infected with the SV40 cancer virus from a polio vaccine since she died of a cancer that has SV40 factors.
