The Doctor Factor

Before the news broke that some of the psychopaths who tried to kill hundreds of innocent people were doctors, I had already been thinking about the kind doctors and nurses who would be looking after this scumbag. I wonder what goes through their minds.

Look at this decent guy hosing down this scumbag, perhaps saving his life. He could have taken the life of my whole family at Glasgow (where I am going this week), my precious daughters, my beautiful son, my anti-Bush mother.

It turns out that doctors from places like Jordan and Iraq don't have a hypocratic oath. Not that that means a lot really. Think of Dr Crippen or Dr Shipman.
