1. Unacceptable
Robby ,   San Jose, USA   (09.22.08)
So this poor guy has to resort to some 'round about' way, which is probably smuggling. Maybe some wealthy Egyptian will read the story and pay off whoever it is to get this poor kid enough of the drug.
2. "PEACE NOW",WHERE ARE YOU?
ROLAND SEENER ,   LONDON ENGLAND   (09.22.08)
3. CREON
Paul Waters ,   Sultanate of Oman   (09.22.08)
I am a 35 year old fellow CF sufferer, luckily in pretty reasonable health. I am sure that this drug is not manufactured solely in Israel, but even if it is it should be possible to get it from elsewhere. I order mine from Australia. Please forward my email address to this man as I would be very happy to help him with finding the cheapest source, and would also be very interested to know more details about this boy. I would also like to pay for a supply to be sent to him. Many thanks, Paul Waters

We in Israel celebrate health and offer it to the world; muslim governments celebrate ideath and offer it to the world
5. #3 Paul Waters!
Robby ,   San Jose, USA   (09.23.08)
What a Mensch! Best of luck to you and the child!!!
6. The world has benefited greatly from discoveries by Jews.
Rivkah   (09.23.08)
Why isn't the world grateful? Why do radical Islamics and atheists and other Jew haters terrorize Jews and make life so hard for Jews and Israelis? Why are the Muslims and the UN and the US always pressuring the Israelis to give up land for peace they know will not result in peace? Find answers to those questions and the drug should be given to the boy. But if you cannot find answers, look up cystic fibrosis in Canadian researcher Ph.D. Hulda Clark's book, "The Cure for All Diseases" and do what she says to do. Elevating tissue oxygen levels to 14 parts per million is a 1934 Nobel Prize Medicine formula (Cellfood in product name) that is available over the counter from suppliers that is helpful in reversing diseases in a few months. Try it. Maybe then you won't have to admit the Jews bless the world and without them, there would be no blessing from the Lord that he promised to those who are kind to the Jews. Even Christians must become a part of the Jewish faith as a grafted on branch or their faith is in vain. Same with Muslims.
7. What really happened
Ilan ,   Ariel   (09.23.08)
The drug, pancrelipase, has many manufacturers and is not that difficult to obtain, but the official questioned couldn't be bothered and didn't care half a damn about the child. The easiest way was to say that it was a zionist drug in the thought that any real Egyptian would rather his child die than to help jews. Guess that this guy is more of a healthy human being than the average Egyptian.
8. Peace with Syria
Ofer   (09.23.08)
Take note all you pushing for peace with Syria. This is what "peace" with the arabs is like.
9. Creon 1000
Zoe's daddy ,   Jacksonville, Fl   (09.23.08)
get it sent from the U.S. or somewhere else... don't let you son suffer. Think outside of the box. Our daughter is four and has CF.... I know how important it is... Best of luck!
10. Made in Germany
Lisha Sterling ,   Israel   (09.24.08)
According to this information site, Creon 1000 is made in Germany. Anyone in Egypt with an Internet connection could find that. You guys at Ynet CERTAINLY could have found that! This story is a bit fishy...
