I hope so, but I’m not sure American case law applies to Zionist entities, sadly. “Israel” gets what it wants, and anyone who says a word that makes a Zionist uncomfortable—intentional or not—can lose everything in a minute.

Not to direct Zionist entities but the hospital itself is part of the larger NYU academic hospital system, so there is a likelihood for this being some form of violation depending on how she wishes to pursue it.
