Dr. Harvey Manes, an orthopedic surgeon from Westhampton Beach, has volunteered with the Israel Ministry of Health to assist in the war against the Hamas terrorists.

“As soon as I receive my clearance from the ministry, I’m volunteering my services as an orthopedic surgeon to do whatever I can to help the Israeli soldiers,” said Manes, who was the youngest doctor ever board-certified in the U.S. when he started his practice 45 years ago. Dr. Manes has vast experience as an orthopedic surgeon, skills that will be a great asset in the war effort. “I’m fully committed to assisting Israel and the brave men and women tasked with taking out the terrorists who perpetrated the worst atrocities against the Jewish people since the Holocaust,” Manes said.

Also, with a residence in Plainview, Manes is an announced candidate against the embattled U.S. Rep. George Santos and is the only Jewish candidate seeking the Republican and Conservative nominations. He is also the only congressional hopeful committed to self-funding his campaign. “I won’t take PAC money and money from the defense industry, which is profiting from America’s endless wars. “If that makes me unpopular inside the Beltway, so be it. My vote will always be for the people.”

The doctor, who hopes to see the conflict settled as quickly as possible, is also against sending any more money to Ukraine without a complete accounting of what’s already been spent. The founder of the Manes Peace Prize Foundation, which has made significant contributions to many charities over the last two decades, has devoted his life to bringing peace to the globe. “We need to make sure that Hamas and any other terrorist organization do not have the capacity to attack anyone ever again,” he said.
