Pharmacological help is precisely what resources and support may mean for some patients. Some people do not need any support, but for others not having it means failure in changing their lifestyle, which is what is actually risky and dangerous, not the drugs that prevent this failure.
That opinion of yours is totally irrelevant to the fact that weight loss drugs have risky and dangerous side effects, according to medical experts' opinions:
Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro and Zepbound all carry a risk of side effects.
The most common side effects for all four drugs include:
Nausea.
Vomiting.
Diarrhea.
Constipation.
Heartburn and acid reflux (including burping).
Bloating.

"Israel is examining the response and will respond to the mediators," the Mossad statement said without further details.
It is totally up to Israel, the only democracy in the Middle East, which is fighting terrorists on Israel's lands.
Naturally, Israel, like any country, is permitted under international law to defend itself against terrorists occupying Israeli lands.
