    “In one instance, a prisoner in his 40s was handcuffed and forced to bend over a desk while a female soldier inserted her fingers into his rectum.”

    TIL a cavity search is rape now.

    Reminds me when the report came out that 98% of palestinian women were sexually abused in IDF captivity; a UN investigation discovered that according to islamic law lifting a hajib is considered sexual assault so every time a palestinian women was searched for explosives they considered it the same as rape.

    After subtracting all those instances the IDF was show to have the lowest percent of rape in the entire world, so of course the palestinians used that as proof that Israelis were so racist against palestinians they didn’t even want to rape their woman. They literally flip flopped from “IDF rapes us too much” to “IDF doesn’t rape us enough”.

    That was the exact moment I began to question the palestinian narrative.

      I’m guessing this “quote” is from this article.

      If that’s the case, here is the actual paragraph:

      The prisoner would be bent over a desk with his hands placed in front of him, handcuffed.

      The female soldier, standing behind him, would insert her fingers and other objects into his rectum.

      When he reacted or moved back, the soldier standing in front of him would hit him in the head and force him to bend again.

      And further down in the article

      “Nothing was more humiliating than when they made me take off my clothes, or when they inserted this object into my butt, or when a young female soldier kept [touching my penis].”

      English is not my first language, but this does not sound like cavity search

      That’s sexual assault, even a legit cavity search is sexual assault it’s just taken to be justified in certain situations.

      That said it wasn’t a cavity search and females are supposed to search females, males search male. Amusingly lifting a hijab is also sexual assault if it’s a man doing it, they’re trying to demean these people and you dummies are to filled with rage to figure it out.

      The experts received substantiated reports of widespread abuse, torture, sexual assault and rape, amid atrocious inhumane conditions, with at least 53 Palestinians apparently dying as a result in 10 months.

      Countless testimonies by men and women speak of detainees in cage-like enclosures, tied to beds blindfolded and in diapers, stripped naked, deprived of adequate healthcare, food, water and sleep, electrocutions including on their genitals, blackmail and cigarette burns. In addition, victims spoke of loud music played until their ears bled, attacks by dogs, waterboarding, suspension from ceilings and severe sexual and gender-based violence.

      “Allegations of gang-rape of a Palestinian detainee, now shockingly supported by voices in the Israeli political establishment and society, provide irrefutable evidence that the moral compass is lost,” the experts said. In February 2024, a number of experts also expressed grave concern regarding the reports of sexual and other forms of gender-based violence committed against Palestinian women and girls in Israeli detention.
