NOT TOO MANY PEOPLE MAY KNOW THIS!

What one might not read in the likes of the biased NYT, the UK Guardian or see reported in other media such as the BBC and CNN, is that elite Israeli troops rescue wounded Syrians from the war zone almost every night; that they have saved more than 2,000 people since 2013 at a financial cost to Israel of £8.7million and that many are enemies of Israel and some may even be fighters for groups affiliated to Al Qaeda.

It is unclear how the two enemies arrange the rescue. All that has been disclosed is that word reaches Israeli forces that casualties have been dumped at the border, intelligence establishes that it is not a trap, and the commandos are sent in. Officially, Israel says that this operation is part of its programme of humanitarianism, which has provided aid to a long list of countries from Haiti to Nepal. Palestinian civilians are also regular patients at Israeli hospitals such as the Rambam Medical Centre in Haifa.

A spokesman pointed out that about 20 per cent of the Syrians treated by Israel are civilians. MailOnline witnessed Israeli army medics treating a sick two-month-old baby and a middle-aged man who had suffered a heart attack, both of whom were evacuated across the Syrian border by the commandos. In October, a Tel Aviv hospital even treated Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas' brother-in-law, and last year it treated the daughter of the Hamas leader, Ismail Haniyeh who seeks Israel's destruction.
