Brave Norwegian doctor: ‘we shouldn’t call ourselves decent if we don’t act to stop this’

Texting from hell, a Norwegian doctor who doesn't want to leave:

According to [61-year-old Mads] Gilbert, the Israeli offensive in such a densely populated
place has created “massacres” because civilians stand “no chance of
getting out of the line of fire.”

“The intensive care unit here is full of children with serious
injuries. Twenty-five percent of the victims are women and children and
forty-five percent of the injured are women and children. This is the
closest you come to a massacre,” Gilbert told Swedish Radio….

“We are swimming in death, blood, and amputated victims. Many children.
Pregnant women. I've never experienced anything so awful.”

Gilbert’s messages eventually became a doctor’s cry for people to take
action to pressure European governments to pressure their leaders into
brokering a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas.

'Send it (the SMS) along, call it out. DO SOMETHING! DO MORE!,' Gilbert
pleads in one SMS, adding, “We shouldn't call ourselves decent
Europeans if we don't act to stop this.”
