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.

    You’re too disconnected from reality to be upset by having it held up in front of you, but that doesn’t make you any less wrong, monstrous, or stupid.

    Israel cleanly hits just about every point on the UN definition of genocide - and they only need to check off one of them. Cope harder.

      no they actually barely even reach the level of the poor victim of evil NATO that were the Bosnian serbs in 99

        What do the Bosnian Serbs have to do with the Israeli genocide of Palestine?

        Those boxes have already been checked - unless the IDF is working on time travel so they can go back and undo their genocidal bullshit, I don’t think my point will be harmed by revisionism and more denialism.

            About the fucking time travel? How do you manage to spell with your intellectual capacity?

            From Article II of the UN Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide

            In the present Convention, genocide means any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such:

            • Killing members of the group;
            • Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;
            • Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part;
            • Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;
            • Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.

            Maybe they’ll travel back to 1948, kill the evil Muslims that wrote the convention, and prove you right.

            …Why are you engaging in such stupidity to defend genocide? You love the thought of dead Muslim kids that much?

              So first, there three missing points but agains we can agree that its sufficient to call genocide. But that mean several things, the first one. The same UN defending Palestine committed genocide against the Serbians

                Not that it matters, because the standard is any of those points, but which 3 don’t you think it meets?

                I’m not familiar with the claim that the UN committed genocide against the Serbians, but if true, that would be bad - what’s your point?

              I’m not defending genocide lol

              I’m disagreeing with you that genocide is happening. 20 years from now there will be Palestinians, ideally in a Palestinian state.

                I assume you’re a consistent piece of shit and deny the Holocaust for the same reason?

                Again, the definition of genocide has already been met. You can’t blame the Muslims for that one unless you’re going to tell me they already managed time travel.

                  Why do you guys always get so psychotic lol

                  If Israel was attempting genocide, don’t you think they’d be… Better at it? They have unchecked military superiority.

                    We still have Jews in Europe - are you denying the Holocaust, or is the standard you pretended to care about to dismiss the UN definition of genocide a lie?

                    Israel needs the support of the US - they can’t act in an unchecked manner, which is why it’s been a slow burn until the anti-Israel extremist group they backed to displace the moderate created the pretext they needed to escalate things.

                  You do realise that the world jewish population has not yet recovered from the Holocaust. Meanwhile the Palestinian population, Gaza included is booming. By the way every way it makes likud speaker sound more deluded about their grand israel hit

                    I’m not the one fronting a definition of genocide that denies the Holocaust.

                    I’ve linked the UN definition of genocide, which this meets.
