A British doctor under investigation for hundreds of antisemitic social media posts, including calls for the ethnic cleansing of Jews, has been allowed to continue practicing while the General Medical Council, the body that regulates doctors in the UK, investigates her conduct.

Dr. Rahmeh Aladwan, a trauma and orthopedics specialist and former member of Palestine Action before its proscription as a terrorist organization, is at the center of one of the latest cases of antisemitic hatred within the UK’s health-care system.

In her social media accounts, Aladwan has repeatedly spread anti-Jewish rhetoric, echoing deeply rooted antisemitic stereotypes and conspiracy theories, including claims that the UK is controlled by “Jewish supremacy” and that the Royal Free Hospital in London, where she works, is a “Jewish Supremacy Cesspit.”

She has also refused to condemn the Hamas-led invasion of and massacre across southern Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, instead spreading false claims of Israeli genocide and denying the Jewish state’s right to exist.

“I don’t condemn Hamas. I don’t condemn Oct. 7. I don’t condemn armed resistance to Occupation. I condemn Israel,” Aladwan wrote in one of her social media posts.

“I am not trying to be unreasonable, but every f**;ing settler will leave Palestine. It’s not for liberal Jewish supremacists (Zionists) or their enablers to decide that Palestinians must live with their land thieves, murderers and rapists,” she said in a different post.

In one of her most recent posts, the medical professional also wrote: “Let’s make this crystal clear: anti-Zionism means ‘Israel’ has no right to exist. No debates. No exceptions. ‘Israel’ is genocide. Its supporters are genocidal — and that includes over 90% of Jews on earth.”

On Thursday, the Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service (MPTS), the UK authority responsible for overseeing doctors’ professional conduct, ruled that Aladwan is fit to continue practicing medicine while the investigation into her continues.

The tribunal found that she had done nothing to “undermine public confidence in the medical profession” and that her antisemitic rhetoric against British Jews did not “amount to bullying or harassment,” citing her right to freedom of expression under the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR).

Following the ruling, social media footage showed Aladwan outside the tribunal, joined by anti-Israel activists waving Palestinian flags in celebration.

“I want to thank the MPTS panel, for making the right decision and not persecuting me for my political speech and most importantly my speech that is aimed at stopping the Holocaust of Palestinians in Gaza … I am very grateful that I was not used as an example today to silence my fellow health-care workers in Britain,” Aladwan said.

The British charity Campaign Against Antisemitism (CAA) strongly condemned the tribunal’s decision, describing such a ruling as neglecting its responsibility to safeguard the public.

“This is an inexplicable and disgraceful decision — one that marks the UK’s continued descent into the abyss, as institutions that carry the responsibility for protecting people from extremists are seemingly bending over backwards to appease and turn a blind eye to them,” the statement read.

“The MPTS has failed spectacularly in its duty. It is staggering that it believes that a doctor who appears to defend armed jihad and violent attacks on Jews, posted a photo of a Hamas terrorist and described a hospital as a ‘cesspit of Jewish supremacy’ should continue to practice,” it continued.

This latest incident follows a case in which a North London hospital suspended a physician who was under investigation for publicly claiming that all Jews have “feelings of supremacy” and downplaying antisemitism.

Earlier this week, Whittington Hospital in Highgate, a suburb of London, suspended Dr. Ellen Kriesels, a consultant in developmental pediatrics, after several of her antisemitic statements went viral.

“Virtually every Jew has some feelings of supremacy (result of their Zionist upbringing) and they might oppose Zionism, but they are not going to challenge their precious community. That just doesn’t feel right to them!” Kriesels wrote in one of her social media posts.

“Always trying to frame the Jews as victims. So ridiculous. So exhausting,” she added in a different post following the Oct. 7 atrocities.

These antisemitic incidents in UK hospitals reflect a wider pattern across Europe, where rising antisemitism within health-care settings has left Jewish communities feeling unsafe and marginalized.

Last month, for example, two medical workers in Italy filmed themselves discarding Israeli-made medicine in protest against the Jewish state at their workplace.

A doctor and a nurse who work at a community hospital in Pratovecchio Stia, near Arezzo in Tuscany, posted on social media the video of dramatically throwing away products from Teva Pharmaceuticals, an Israeli company.

In the Netherlands, police opened an investigation into Batisma Chayat Sa’id, a nurse who allegedly stated she would administer lethal injections to Israeli patients.

In Belgium, a hospital suspended a physician after discovering antisemitic content on his social media, including a cartoon showing babies being decapitated by the tip of a Star of David and an AI-generated image depicting Hasidic Jews as vampires poised to devour a sleeping baby.

The doctor came under fire after he recently diagnosed a nine-year-old patient by listing “Jewish (Israeli)” as one of her medical problems on his report.

In Australia, two nurses filmed themselves bragging online about refusing to treat Israelis, making throat-slitting gestures, and boasting of killing Jews. Both lost their licenses and now face criminal charges.
