Over the first four days of Israel-Hamas prisoner exchange, Israel arrests 133 Palestinians while releasing 150.

…

But the worry for Palestinian prisoners does not end after their release. The majority of those freed are usually rearrested by Israeli forces in the days, weeks, months and years after their release.

Dozens of those who were arrested in a 2011 Israel-Hamas prisoner exchange were rearrested and had their sentences reinstated.

…

Many of the women and children released during the truce have testified to the abuse they experienced in Israeli prisons.

Several videos have also emerged in recent weeks of Israeli soldiers beating, stepping on, abusing and humiliating detained Palestinians who have been blindfolded, cuffed and stripped either partially or entirely. Many social media users said the scenes brought back memories of the torture tactics used by United States forces in Iraq’s Abu Ghraib prison in 2003.

    Do not downplay the term apartheid or genocide like this. Israel is an illegal apartheid state. And they are committing a genocide. Denying this really raises eyebrows you see.

      Israel is an illegal apartheid state. And they are committing a genocide.

        If Israel doesn’t want to be called an apartheid state it should stop its apartheid.

        Here you are, lying on the internet again - I can’t say I’m surprised at your lack of integrity - you’re a fucking genocide denier.

        The UN disagrees with you on both points.

        • Palestinian casualties in the “conflict” are pretty squarely in-line with the broader Palestinian population, making it pretty indisputable the IDF is indiscriminately killing Palestinians, not targeting Hamas.
        • The Netanyahu administration has been spouting all sorts of genocidal rhetoric.
        • The Netanyahu administration actively propped up Hamas over moderate orgs. Seems like someone needed a pretext for the thing they’ve been trying to do for decades.
        • The Netanyahu administration has indiscriminately halted the movement of Palestinians, and cut water, power, food, trade and aid. Some of these have been restored thanks to international pressure - open war crimes and whatnot.
        • The UN has characterised the Netanyahu administration’so management of Palestine as an open air concentration camp.
        • The IDF has killed tens of thousands of Palestinian civilians - a major share of those deaths were children.
        • The IDF lies relentlessly - tunnels built under the Al-Shifa hospital by the Israeli government? No - that was Hamas… But Hamas beheaded all those babies - trust us, bro - we’ve got the evidence, but can’t share it or have it verified. Then there’s the Arabic calendar nonsense, the “hospital” curtain bullshit, the list goes on.

          well that’s impossible as every country except the free republic of Iran are turbo zionist^and that’s why shooting their citizens is justified

          he IDF is indiscriminately killing Palestinians, not targeting Hamas.

          Can I call that an “act of resistance” ? Yeah no would be pretty fucked u

          But Hamas beheaded all those babies

          the tabloid who made up that claim is now making its main title about how israel is genociding gazans.

          tunnels built under the Al-Shifa hospital by the Israeli government?

          If you really were not feasting on Tsahal propaganda you would realise their first lie was “we can absolutely enter gaza and destroy the HAMAS” so except if they lost two brigades before october I can’t really see how they could have built the tunnels

          but can’t share it

          they hamas did share the videos, the strafing cars, the gunned festival goers… the rape. Then Tsahal shared the pictures : the bullet ridden cars, charred corpses

          But don’t worry, you’re right,the War of Liberation is glorious, the war is just, the war is fair, the war is just, the war is beautiful

            Strong opener there.

            Can I call that (the IDF indiscriminately killing Palestinians) an “act of resistance” ?

            You could call a nuclear power occupying a territory, and operating it as an open air concentration camp, restricting water, power, movement, food, and trade, killing the people there an act of resistance, but you’d look pretty silly.

            the tabloid who made up that (beheading babies) claim

            The IDF isn’t a tabloid that’s publishing headlines about their genocide.

            I can’t really see how they could have built the tunnels

            I won’t bother with the evidence - I’ll just point out that you’re defending bombing a hospital… To achieve what?

            they hamas did share the videos

            Of the babies the IDF lied that Hamas killed? No.

            If you weren’t desperate to defend a genocide, you wouldn’t have to say such stupid shit.

              No. Yes reality does not exist . So I guess the videos they took of themselves raiding those kibbutz or machinegunning cars does not exist

          Lol the real countries of the UN agree with me. The extremely united and extremely politically manipulative Muslim bloc doesn’t. Who cares what totalitarian hellstates think lol.

          I skipped the rest of your message because you were wrong in the first sentence.

            Ah yes - the Muslims don’t count… Nor does the definition of the word genocide, or the US strategic interests in propping up Israel…

            Got any more of those feels for me? You’re a less effective liar than most backing this genocide, so there’s probably benefit to you parading your dopey bullshit around for all to see.

              The US strategic interest actually aren’t in propping up Israel, Technically they are in propping up Lebanon. Their interest is forbidding the current administration of Palestine to have anymore power

                The arms supply, funding, military bases, and Evangelical need for the Jews to occupy that territory for the rapture disagree with your analysis.

                  Rapture is an evangelical protestant concept. “Evangelical” only applies to christianity. Learn correct vocabulary

                One must learn to accept being upset at one’s self sometimes. It might help you see the genocide.
