Hamas/Israel conflict: news and discussion

[two sheds]

Be fair, though, a lot of Palestinians weren't arrested they were just shot.

Possibly something to do with a 'prisoner' being someone convicted of crimes in a court of law, versus a 'hostsge' being kidnapped just for being min the wrong place at the wrong time.

Have all of the Palestinian Arab prisoners held by the State of Israel been found guilty in a court of law? Or is it not the case that many have been detained withut trial?

 

[PTK]

“Among those released was Shatha Jarabaa (24) who was arrested over a social media post criticising the “brutality” of Israel’s campaign in Gaza.”
. . .
“In East Jerusalem, the homes of at least four prisoners were reportedly raided by Israeli security forces who seized flags and symbols associated with Palestine with soldiers explicitly warning relatives against speaking to the media.

The Israel Prison Service said on Friday that it would take measures to prevent any “public displays of joy” by families of Palestinian prisoners released in the deal.”

Presumably you know full well that thousands of Palestinians are being held without being allowed legal representation or even being told what they've been charged with.

They're hostages and it's disingenuous to pretend otherwise.

So, the Palestinians aren't allowed to dhow joy at their family members being released but the Israeli families are? Hmm, seems a bit one sided doesn't it (again)?

They're being released, often without ever having been charged, but they're guilty really. All Palestinians are.

Yep, that's certainly the narrative that has been in use for a very long time.

 

[littlebabyjesus]

I've known FMotLers call their guys in custody 'hostages' and refer to arrests as 'kidnappings' because they deny the legitimacy of the british state.

That's an offensively stupid thing to say in this context.
