Israel is ensuring there will not be peace with Palestinians nor those of Palestinian desent. As this young boy said “God will take my vengence!” which you can beleive means he now is willing to hurt those who hurt him and those around him. But the question asked is true, where is the UN, where is anyone to help stop Israel. Hugs. Scottie
An Israeli air strike on a UN-run school sheltering displaced Palestinians at the Jabalia refugee camp in northern Gaza killed at least 15 people and injured dozens more, according to a doctor at al-Shifa Hospital. According to CNN, the Israeli Defense Forces allege the Central Jabalya Battalion took control of civilian buildings, adding collapsed tunnels were partly a reason for the destruction caused by the strike on Tuesday. “I carried a body and another decapitated body with my own hands,” a Gazan boy said at the site. At least 9,488 Palestinians including 3,900 children have been killed in Israeli strikes on Gaza since Oct. 7, the health ministry in Hamas-controlled Gaza said on Saturday. “There are 15 martyrs and the number is expected to increase,” Mohammad Abu Selmeyah, who is also an official in the health ministry in the Hamas-run enclave, said. During the conflict, Israel has consistently claimed it’s targeting Hamas militants following the Oct. 7 attack on the Israeli kibbutz, Be’eri kibbutz.

“When I woke up, I discovered that I had been shot 30 times.”
Abderrahman Al Zeghel, a 14-year-old Palestinian child and the youngest prisoner released in the Hamas-Israel hostage exchange, sustained deadly head injuries after Israeli forces assaulted him while he was buying bread in occupied East Jerusalem’s Silwan.
Despite undergoing multiple surgeries, he now lives with “half a skull” and faces health issues preventing a return to normal life.
Israeli law doesn’t permit the imprisonment of children under 14 and instead enforces house arrests as a form of punishment.
The report shows how Israeli military fakes videos to claim it is Hamas surrendering, while they make the Arab men stand in public view in their underwear. They wouldn’t do that to an Israeli man, so why is it OK to do a Palestinian one? Plus the abused the children they took and kept for days refusing them water or the right to use a bathroom, ordering the kids to pee on themselves. Again humiliating them and torturing them with long periods of discomfort / need. They are numbering the kids with hard to get off ink! They staged mock executions of some men by threatening to bury them alive! Which is another war crime, all to terrorize the civilians. Imagine the fear of the men. How in the world can we allow this to continue? Hugs. Scottie
The scenes being described on the ground are heartbreaking.
How could leaders of so-called civilised countries have abstained or voted against a ceasefire in the UN?
“They’ve the blood of thousands on their hands,” says Holly Cairns TD. Footage taken from Leaders’ Questions debate between Holly Cairns, Leader of the Social Democrats, and Taoiseach Leo Varadkar on 13 December, 2023.
This 12-year-old Palestinian was taken to an Israeli interrogation centre without a lawyer or parent, after being accused of throwing stones at Israeli soldiers in the occupied West Bank.
A 12-year-old Palestinian in the Occupied West Bank has been detained for hours at an Israeli interrogation centre before being released. He told Al-Jazeera about the intimidation, fear and threats he faced.
Israel has over 7,000 Palestinians in prison, most held without charges. The others faced long sentences for gathers of 10 or more for what Israel calls political expression. Palestinians are banned from displaying their flag or political symbols. Again a 10 year prison sentence. 10 years if a Palestinian orally attempts to influence public opinion in a way Israel thinks would harm public peace. Remember, these rules only apply to the Palestinians, not the Israeli settlers in Palestinian territory. Life in prison for any act that Israel determines a disturbance or a danger to the security of the area or threats the security of the IDF (military). That includes kids throwing rocks at the illegal wall Israel built in Palestinian territory. Of course the laws are written very vague so they can be applied to anything a Palestinian does that someone in Israel doesn’t like. Remember that while Israeli media and people held huge events celebrating the return of their family members, the Palestinians were warned they would be all be arrested if there was a similar celebration of returning family members.
Do you not see the Palestinians are kept in an open air prison with every aspect of their lives under the military control of Israeli IDF and at the mercy of any Jewish citizen who harms them. I recently watched a video of an illegal Jewish settler walk up to a Palestinian man who was unarmed and just shoot him. A few feet away was an Israel Soldier who did nothing. On the Palestinian’s land, he was a farmer shot on his own property. The Jewish man was never charged. There is more in the video. Hugs. Scottie
Israel has been engaged in harrowing negotiations to recover the roughly 240 hostages held by Hamas and other militant groups in Gaza following the October 7 attack. In exchange for their release, the Israeli government has a bargaining chip that is extremely valuable to Palestinians: the thousands of Palestinian prisoners locked up in Israeli prisons.
Each one of these Palestinian prisoners has been processed by Israel’s military court system, which exists completely separate from the civilian court system that Jewish Israelis interact with. This system and the military orders that govern it have their origins in the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories in 1967.
In this video, two experts explain Israel’s military court system, why it’s been a focus of outcry from human rights organizations and why hostage negotiations have historically involved the exchange of Palestinian prisoners.
