As horrible as the circumstances are that they come together are, it's nice that there's some humans running both sides.

Israelis and Palestinians join forces to combat Ebola

AFP   5 hours ago

Jerusalem (AFP) - Israeli and Palestinian officials met at the weekend to draw up an action plan to prevent the Ebola epidemic from spreading to the territories they control, the Israeli military said Sunday.

"During the meeting (on Saturday evening), updates were exchanged between the parties, and transfer of information was agreed upon by way of additional meetings to take place in order to further track the issue," said COGAT, the defence ministry unit responsible for Palestinian civilian coordination.

One proposal to combat the disease was for Israel to provide courses in advanced epidemiology for Palestinian and Jordanian medical staff, a health ministry official said on condition of anonymity.

Ebola has killed more than 4,000 people this year, nearly all of them in the West African countries of Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone, according to the World Health Organisation (WHO).

"There are contacts with the Israeli side regarding this within the context of WHO's instructions on fighting this virus, which is a global task," said Assad Ramlawi of the Palestinian health ministry.

At least they are cognizant of that fact.

Only a fool would trust palestine. Even with Ebola hanging over their heads, they would still kill those who would help them.

Not even imminent doom would make a savage act as anything other than a savage.
