In the West Bank, Palestinians don't have to break laws to get arrested
Palestinian activist Hadeel Hijazt has been held in an Israeli prison since June last year with no charges and no answers. She was freed in Sunday's ceasefire exchange, and is more determined than ever to speak out.
Hadeel Hijaz, a 33-year-old activist, was arrested last June on her way home to the West Bank from Malaysia and has been held in an Israeli prison ever since, with no charges and no answers.
She was one of the many Palestinian prisoners held under what is known as "administrative detention" where people are arrested on the grounds they plan to break the law in the future.
the average american would have a full on existential breakdown facing ten minutes of what Palestinians go through within their own borders.
I mean I come from one of the worst non-foreign occupied police states in the world and I'd have a full on existential breakdown facing ten minutes of what Palestinians go through within their own borders.
Yet on the face of it, many Americans support this since it is effecting Palestinians.
Well they're about to experience it within the next year right? I mean I don't hope it happens but Americans don't really have a chance but to experience what we did to every other country (Iraq, Vietnam, Etc.) Its just time corporations realize they can really occupy the US
Well, not if they are the chosen people
Israel must free the hostages.
I hope they do. The suffering is so inhumane and misguided
lol
Do you find the reality that Israel tortures, rapes, and kills Palestinians (including children), and has been for decades, funny or something?
Palestinian Prisoners in Israeli Prisons
Palestinians are jailed without charge, forced into false confessions, routinely tortured, raped, denied medical attention, and some even killed as a result. This includes hundreds of children.
