Europe’s Youngest ALS Patient Faces Wave of Online Hate After Seeking Treatment in Israel
By Algemeiner Staff, May 15, 2019:
Europe’s youngest ALS patient has become the object of vicious online abuse after he attempted to raise money for a new treatment in Israel.
Story continues below advertisementAmyotrophic lateral sclerosis is a degenerative nerve disease that destroys motor neurons, slowly paralyzing and ultimately killing those afflicted with it. Its most famous sufferer was the physicist Stephen Hawking.
According to Hebrew news site Mako, the young patient, Paolo Palumbo, who lives in Italy, was accepted into a treatment program at Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital in Jerusalem. It is believed that due to Palombo’s young age, the treatment could not only arrest the progression of the disease but also lead to remission.
The treatment, however, costs 900,000 euros. Palumbo, who cannot eat or breathe on his own, turned to online crowd-funding in order to pay for it, but was met with a wave of hatred.
“Your efforts are pointless,” said one, “you will die before you reach Israel.”
Another read, “You are a bastard and someone who gives you money is a bastard.”
Palumbo’s brother told the media, “There are conversations in which groups of people enjoy insulting Paolo.”
In a final post to his Facebook group, Palumbo said he wanted to be cut off, not from his life support machines, but from the violent hatred he was facing.
There were some supporters, however, with one saying, “My mother died of ALS in 2004 and I contributed.”
Another said, “You will make it to Israel and get through this treatment, because of your age, your family, and all those who did not.”

again you forfeit your right to land if you attack them and they successfully defend themselves. and if the shoe was on the other foot your beloved side would commit genocide. so its win or die for the jews. if you hate the jews so much you should never use their medical technology.

And your DNA, semen, is wired to rape, kill and behead the infidel. And of course, to rape goats and sheep….you probably fail miserably at the former, but we all know there is none better than you in the latter….

You better hope that you don’t contract some sickening disease that requires that you be treated in Israel. I almost said, or any one that you love or hold dear, but that wouldn’t apply in your case, considering that your vituperative, cruel malicious hatred keeps your heart cold and keeps you strong. But just remember, you are very very strong indeed, BUT, smell isn’t everything, remember that.

Read your history, not the propaganda. There is no such place as palestine. There are no such people as palestinians. It is a construct of the Roman empire. Those are the facts!

“Your efforts are pointless,” said one, “you will die before you reach Israel.”
Nothing so clearly shows the malevolence of parts of the anti-Israel crowd than their truly hateful comments toward this unfortunate man. I certainly hope none of them receive the benefit of any medical advance that rests of the achievements of the tiny state of Israel or of any Jew.

Here it is AGAIN…that vile hatred coming from the left! A leftist will tell you we conservatives are bigots, haters, violent, etc., etc. BUT when you really look at bigotry, racists, hatred, facists, violent people…THEY ARE LEFTISTS. Virtually every single time. Never let a leftist tell U you’re the hater. Just look at the track record of the left, who do they really model after? Religious zealots and/or radical islam.

There are no proven instances of an Actual BDS supporters, BDS’ing themselves, they can regularly be seen on Israeli schools, hospitals, taking Israeli medicine, eating Israeli grown or raised food, and using Israeli developed tech,
What they want is other people to BDS Israel, while not be willing to do so themselves.

Those anti-Israelis who oppose Paolo Palumbo’s treatment are just as evil as those who kill babies and euthanize the elderly. They are murderers.
