treating Erekat in apartheid Israel

There is a big debate as to whether Israel should be treating Saeb Erekat in an Israeli hospital or not. Erekat has CoronaVirus and is supposedly in very bad condition.

From an Israeli perspective, it does not bother me that Israel is treating Erekat. Israel goes well out of its way to treat enemy combatants, citizens of enemy countries and others opposed to our very existence. Treating Erekat is a humanitarian gesture that is in line with what Israel regularly does.

From Erekat's perspective, perhaps he should be refusing this treatment, considering what he thinks of Israel. 

But that is his problem and hypocrisy, not ours.
