A bombshell report by The New York Times reveals how wanted Hamas terrorist leader Yahya Sinwar was saved by a Jewish dentist.
In the early 2000s, while serving multiple life sentences for his part in the killings of Israeli soldiers, Sinwar suffered a medical crisis. Disoriented and plagued by fainting spells from an undiagnosed rapidly-growing brain tumor, his condition grabbed the attention of Dr. Yuval Bitton, then a dentist at the Israeli prison.
Properly evaluating Sinwar’s symptoms, Dr. Bitton urgently referred him to neurological specialists at Soroka Medical Center who removed the tumor. In the wake of the lifesaving surgery, a devoutly antisemitic Sinwar expressed profound gratitude to his Jewish savior, meeting regularly to share tea and appreciation for saving his life.
“Sinwar asked to explain to me what it means in Islam that I saved his life,” Dr. Bitton said. “It was important to him that I understood from a Muslim how important this was in Islam — that he owed me his life.”
That noble gesture of human decency, however, proved a cruel mirage when filtered through Sinwar’s terrorist pathology.
After being released in 2011 as part of a hostage exchange, Sinwar ascended through Hamas’ ranks to become the terror group’s top commander in Gaza. In that role last October 7, he orchestrated and unleashed the single most devastating attack on Israeli civilians in the nation’s history.
Tragically the anguish of Dr. Bitton, who pleaded against Sinwar’s release, knows no bounds as one of the victims murdered by Sinwar’s conscripted terrorist horde was none other than his own nephew – 38-year-old Tamir Adas. The young man was tragically gunned down defending his kibbutz before being dragged to his death in the hellhole of Gaza.
