British Jewish Doctor Who Joked About Sniping Palestinian Babies A UK General Practitioner registered with the General Medical Council is under scrutiny after allegedly posting a response on social media appearing to endorse the killing of Palestinian children. Dr Staveley reportedly replied "not enough" when asked how many Palestinian babies he had "sniped", a comment he subsequently described as a joke. The GMC has not confirmed any formal action or suspension at the time of reporting, despite calls from advocacy groups for an immediate investigation into his fitness to practise. The defence of humour does not hold up to professional scrutiny. Doctors operate under a code of conduct that extends beyond the clinic; the GMC's own standards require registered physicians to behave with integrity in all public-facing conduct. A comment of this nature, made on a public platform, raises legitimate questions about patient trust and professional fitness, particularly for patients from Muslim and Arab backgrounds. Despite the public outcry, Staveley remains on the medical register and continues to hold a valid licence to practise. He is reported to have been removed from at least one clinical role, though this has not been independently verified. Campaign groups are calling for his immediate suspension and a formal GMC investigation, calls that, at the time of publication, appear to have gone unanswered.
