Will he grow up among Jews and become a Righteous Gentile or will go back to the Arabs when he grows up? Obiously Israel should not help Arab babies from Gaza if the parents are involved. But if this Arab kid is raised among Jews and learns how the Arab Muslims treated him, will he be different? It's like if a black kid in the United States is raised by whites and therefore doesn't grow up in the mainstream ghetto black culture.

Disabled Gaza baby lives in Israel hospital
Abandoned by parents, 3-year-old amputee Mohammed won the hearts of his doctors, who fundraise his medical bills

In his short life, Palestinian toddler Mohammed al-Farra has known just one home: the yellow-painted children's ward in Israel's Tel Hashomer hospital.
Born in Gaza with a rare genetic disease, Mohammed's hands and feet were amputated because of complications from his condition, and the 3 1/2-year-old carts about in a tiny red wheelchair. His parents abandoned him, and the Palestinian government won't pay for his care, so he lives at the hospital with his grandfather.

I generally feel bad about these situations. I personally would err on the side these Israelis and take care of this child who is abandoned versus not helping him just because he is from Arab descent.

Does it matter? He has no hands and no feet what possible damage can he do? He obviously isn't needed by the Arabs and would be a liability instead. (need to provide him food, shelter, care etc.)

I wish Israeli medical staff would work so hard to save injured Jewish children.

Answer: to the above question. According to my understanding of Rabbi Kahane, in Ohr Haraayon, where he compares them to the 7 nations of Canaan, it is bad.
