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.

      Ah yes, I forgot that every Palestinian is a murderer and Israel is just pursuing rightful justice. How silly of me.

        Not every Palestinian, but the ones arrested for murder or attempted murder usually are.

          Except apparently a lot of people accused of stabbings had no apparent victim and no knife found. One lady had her car brean down so they shot her until they started a fire and she ended up with burns and bruises but also in prison. Seems like a lot of stories are just Palestinians being shot at randomly by the IDF, then THE IDF arrests them and withdraws medical treatment and tortures them in jail…

          I find it hard to trust any decision made by an Israeli court. These people need to be retried.

      Meanwhile Israel bans diaspora languages, condemns holocaust survivors to poverty while slurring them as soap, and treats Ethiopian and other black Jews almost as badly as they treat Israeli Palestinians.

      Is Israel continues its apartheid and oppression of Palestinians, they shouldn’t expect things to get better. On the contrary, Bibi is arming civilians. And we all know how well that ends.
