New York City emergency room doctor Dana Diab has been fired after giddily posting on social media that Israeli civilians murdered by Palestinian terrorists got “a taste of their own medicine.”
Diab, who was a doctor at Lenox Hill Hospital and Brookdale University Hospital & Medical Center was happy to celebrate the murderous rampage of Hamas through Southern Israel on Instagram on OCt. 7.
“Zionist settlers getting a taste of their own medicine,” she wrote, according to the New York Post.
Diab rushed to set her social media accounts to private, but not soon enough before screenshots were made of her posts.
Stop Antisemitism found Diab’s posts, and wrote, “Dina [sic] Diab took to Instagram rejoicing Zionist settlers [aka jews] were murdered, raped, beheaded, and kidnapped by the Hamas terror group on Saturday October 7th.”

After the social media outrage, Northwell Health confirmed on Tuesday that Diab was no longer an employee.
“We are deeply sorry for the hurt and offense these comments have caused,” Northwell added.
I am not always a big fan of “cancel culture.” But in this case, this woman is a healthcare provider, a person who all patients need to trust. And if she is proving that she does not value the lives of Jewish people, she can’t be trusted to provide proper healthcare in an unbiased manner.
Diab deserved to be fired.
