A whistle-blower detailed how procedures in one military hospital were “routinely” carried out without painkillers, causing “an unacceptable amount of pain” to detainees.

Another whistle-blower said painkillers were used “selectively” and “in a very limited way” during an invasive medical procedure on a Gazan detainee in a public hospital.

He also said critically ill patients being held in makeshift military facilities were being denied proper treatment because of a reluctance by public hospitals to transfer and treat them.

One detainee, taken from Gaza for questioning by the Israeli army and later released, told the BBC his leg had to be amputated because he was denied treatment for an infected wound.

The first four words of the article, that were cut from the headline, cite the source of the information.

Medical workers in Israel have told the BBC that Palestinian detainees from Gaza are routinely kept shackled to hospital beds, blindfolded, sometimes naked, and forced to wear nappies – a practice one medic said amounted to “torture”.

You’re right about Hamas, however this information was provided by Israeli medical workers.

All those words and yet no condemnation of what seems to have happened here. Not even “if this is true it is disgusting, but…”

This tells everybody reading that you don’t actually care about people suffering, you just took a “side” like a football hooligan and have nothing of value to add to the conversation

Since we’re copying and pasting:

I am utterly Pro-Palestinian.

In what sense? Do you support statehood? An end to the occupation of and illegal settlements in the West Bank?

Isn’t this discussion about the brutal and torturous conditions Palestinians are subjected to by Israel? What do you think about that? As in, the article in the OP. Is it cool with you or a bad thing that should be stopped?

If you answer my (relevant) question I will happily attempt to answer your (irrelevant) one.

Interesting you agree with him, having created your account less than an hour ago and so far having done little other than copy his comments word for word. Sock puppet?

I think you honestly need to have a long hard look at yourself.Who reads about people being tortured and their answer to it is "but hamas"If someone came on here defenending hamas torture you would be rightfully disgusted.But for some reason zionist apoligists seen to view Palastianians as subhuman.I wonder were else in history this was prevelent.

Did you read the article? It is about people arrested by Israel’s officials. Some of them are released after without being even tried. Sometimes they are released without a leg, for example, because in Israel’s hospitals they did not gave him treatment. How a person, who is shakled to the hospital bed can “just go to Egypt”?

Years ago, in the distant past, a youth with no learning, I set out to figure out a way to scare off the crows on my father’s land.

I put up some sticks, but that didn’t work.

Eventually I figured out that fleshing out that skeletal figure worked better. I gave that figure some more depth and dimensionality.

I propped up that skeletal figure, put some clothes on him and stuffed him full of straw. He did good. He scared off the crows.

He was my straw man. He was good at his job. How good is your straw man?
