NHS doctor claims Manchester synagogue attack was ‘false flag operation’ to boost sympathy for Israel – while another medic says Hamas is ‘liberation army’

An NHS doctor is spreading the conspiracy theory that the Manchester synagogue attack was a ‘false flag operation’ designed to boost sympathy for Israel amid international pressure over its treatment of Palestinians.
Respiratory consultant Dr from Manchester Asad Khan shared a group on Instagram and Facebook group called On-Call Room where registered doctors engaged in ‘live banter and discussion’ that cast doubt on the cause of the terror attack.
Islamic extremist Jihad Al-Shamie, 35, was shot dead by armed police outside Heaton Park Synagogue in Crumpsall, Manchester, after plowing his car into members of the Jewish community and stabbing them. He was also wearing a fake suicide belt at the time.
In the attack, 53-year-old Adrian Daulby and 66-year-old Melvin Cravitz lost their lives and 4 people were injured.
It was later revealed that Mr Daulby’s fatal injuries and the serious injuries of the second surviving victim were caused by a police bullet.
Dr. had to stop working after contracting Covid-19 in November 2020. On the day of the attack, Khan was posting online claiming that the terrorist attack was a ‘wrong sign’.
It comes amid a number of NHS workers accused of making anti-Semitic posts online following the attack.
Posting in the Call Room, Times According to reports, Dr Khan said he ‘raised the possibility that this was a false flag’.
Respiratory consultant Dr from Manchester Asad Khan posted on Instagram and in the Facebook group On-Call Room, claiming that the terrorist attack at the synagogue was a “false flag” operation.
Dr. had previously had to stop working after contracting Covid-19 in November 2020. Khan says he has ‘the right to speculate’ about synagogue attack
He added: ‘I may be right, I may be wrong. I have the right to speculate. There have been false flag antisemitic incidents before, including synagogue attacks.’
He later allegedly promoted the same conspiracy theory on Instagram.
Dr Khan is also said to have posted the following screenshot on X: ‘The Manchester synagogue incident is a conveniently timed hoax. A little warm-up for next October 7th. Israel’s sympathy is waning and it clearly needs support.’
In a separate post, the advisor republished a headline suggesting that Israel was responsible for attacks on Jews outside Israel.
“We should not be surprised or horrified if a pro-Israeli Zionist synagogue in the UK is attacked because of the genocide in Palestine,” the statement said.
‘It’s pretty simple really. If you want Jews to feel safe, don’t let Zionist Jews destroy Palestinians in the name of their Judaism.’
And this week he retweeted a post by X calling for the ‘invasion and occupation’ of Israel.
Dr Khan is far from the only NHS worker accused of anti-Semitism.
Palestinians evacuated to the southern part of Gaza are starting their journey home after a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas was reached this week.

Ten days after the terror group Hamas attacked on 7 October, killing 1,200 people and kidnapping 251 people they took to Gaza, the Dundee GP called for the eradication of Zionism.
Dr Shamroz Afghan described it as ‘an inherently racist system of apartheid based on Jewish supremacy’.
In a second post, Dr. Afghan wrote that Gaza was ‘a military testing ground, an organ harvesting ground… where tourists go to watch bombs being dropped on people.’
And in December, NHS North East’s Dr. Oyin Abiki described Hamas as a ‘liberation army’.
Israel has been accused of ‘genocide’ and starving hundreds of Gazans to death by pro-Palestinian activists since October 7.
International organizations have previously declared famine in areas of the Gaza Strip, and countries including the UK have recently recognized Palestine’s right to statehood following reactions against Israel’s treatment of Palestinians.
More than 67 thousand Palestinians have been killed in clashes since October 7.
Anger over the treatment of Palestinians is leading to an ‘uncontrolled growth’ of extreme anti-Semitism in the medical profession, including the NHS, campaigners have warned.
NHS doctor Dr Rahmeh Aladwan, a trainee trauma and orthopedic surgeon, is under investigation for social media posts in which he described the Holocaust as a ‘concept’
The GP Tribunal Service ruled last month that no suspension was necessary, allowing Dr Rahmeh Aladwan (pictured) to continue working
Mail previously described the Holocaust as a ‘concept’ and said that he would ‘never condemn’ the October 7 attack. He included the case of Rahmeh Aladwan.
A recent court ruling allowed him to continue his work – to the fury of Health Secretary Wes Streeting – after a series of posts emerged in which he described a north London hospital as a ‘dumping ground of Jewish supremacy’.
The trainee surgeon appeared to be in denial, describing the Holocaust as a ‘concept’ and a ‘fabricated victim narrative’.
Another post reads, “I will never condemn October 7.”
In addition to slaughtering 1,200 Israelis, Hamas fighters are accused of brutal acts of sexual violence against both their male and female victims.
Dr Aladwan and Dr Khan posted posts on social media denying that this had happened; Dr Khan reposted claims that Israeli women are ‘lying’.
This week the General Practitioners Tribunal Service ruled last month that no suspension was necessary, following guidance from the General Medical Council.
Despite warnings that Jewish patients might not feel safe in his care, Dr. It ruled that there was insufficient evidence to show that Aladwan posed a real risk to patients.
Dr Aladwan now faces a new court hearing scheduled for October 23
Following the decision, Health Secretary Wes Streeting said he had no confidence in the medical regulator.
“The racist language of ‘Jewish supremacy’ reflects the values of the Nazis, not the NHS,” he wrote to X.
‘I fail to understand how doctors using such language with impunity does not undermine trust in the medical profession. ‘I don’t trust our regulatory system.’
But now the General Medical Council, which brought the original case seeking his suspension, has now sent the case back to the MPTS.
Rahman Lowe, the law firm representing Dr Aladwan, responded to Mr Streeting’s comments in a letter to the Health Secretary.
In a statement, the London-based company said: ‘The letter expresses serious concern about the Minister’s interference in live judicial proceedings without knowledge of the evidence or submissions before the MPTS.
‘The comments, made clearly in concert with the complainants, undermine the independence of the regulatory and judicial processes and raise serious questions about the Secretary of State’s commitment to the Ministerial Rules, the House of Commons Code of Conduct and the Rule of Law.
‘We have requested the Minister to stop commenting or intervening further in Dr Aladwan’s case and to disclose details of any meetings or communications with complainants or the GMC.’
According to figures obtained by Jewish News, around 500 complaints about 123 doctors have been forwarded to the General Medical Council (GMC) since the Hamas attacks.
