Chapter 59 Ethnic cleanser
(2)
Dr.
Girgo assumed the result of infection like this; The newly discovered virus
would infect both Palestinians and Jews including Ashkenazim. It might cause
fever. But the fever should subside in a few days and there were no visible
aftereffects. In addition, the fatality rate was almost zero. No high risk was
expected. However, post-infection diagnosis would have left a deadly result on
Palestinian women alone. It meant that their fertility was significantly
reduced.
It
was necessary for Dr. Girgo to carry out human experiments to prove his hypothesis.
But it was obvious that no government agency would accept his proposal
seriously. In order to break through, it was essential to get the assistance of
top official who had the influence within the government. If the strongman not
only believed the legitimacy of the Ashkenazi but also concerned about the sharp
increase of Palestinian population, he would accept Girgo’s idea.
He
thought he tried to get in touch with his old acquaintance, Shy-Rock. Shy-Rock
was the father of Shalom, a former one-sided lover. In order to break their
relationship, Shy-Rock expelled him to the United States. It was a long time
ago. In return, he had a chance to study cutting-age technology in medical
science and obtained diploma. He got an important position in a government
agency after coming back from U.S.
He
was a man who used everything available for honor and prestige. He asked Shy-Rock
and visited his residence.
Dr.
Girgo was guided by Anat and entered the office of Shy-Rock.
"Your
Excellency, it's my great honor to see you again. I'm glad you're doing
well."
He
emphasized the word "again" to attract Shy-Rock's attention.
It
was the second time they had met since he asked to marry his second daughter, Shalom,
a few years ago. Her father rejected to marrying his daughter. He proposed
overseas study in the United States as a condition of their separation. Girgo catched
at the idea.
He
had understood at the beginning that it was difficult for him to get married
with Shalom because there was big difference in social status between them. Dr.
Girgo came from a poor Russian farmer, and Shalom was from an elite Ashkenazi. He
weighed marriage and study in the United States. He took his own advantage. Dr.
Girgo was a man of mercenary.
