This is not Pol Pot. This is not ISIS, or some ancient evil act we read in history books. This is the results of what "only democracy in middle east" is doing right now.
"One said I came here and I was completely fine, but I lost my leg. Another said I was completely fine but I lost my arm." Horrifying testimonies by men, who were released yesterday from an Israeli detention camp.
It's just beyond me how the "world" is watching these outrageous #atrocities with absolutely 0 reaction. It's just unbelievable. This is Pol Pot style atrocities, this is ISIS style atrocities, this is just something everyone used to get outraged and angry about.
But, when Israel does these, the "worldx leaders go numb.
She was healthy and unharmed after 8 months captivity, despite all the lies and take stories about how they are being held in Gaza.
While a large portion of the Palestinian population in Gaza starving because of Israeli blockade of food, the Israeli prisoners were well fed and in good health after their release.
Unlike every Palestinian who face unthinkable level of torture including sodomy, starvation, amputation of their hands and feet because of extensive use of military zip tie as handcuffs. None of the 4 Israelis released by IDF after slaughter of over 200 palestinians.
The more resistance that the colonized shows, the more brutal the colonizer becomes. Genocidal Israel is now walking in the footsteps of all other settler colonies on their deathbed.
You should also pray for the 1000s of #Palestinian#hostages held by isreal as well. yes, isreel has Palestinian hostages they #torture and #rape as well. isreal is good a #propaganda game and hiding that fact, they torture and rape Palestinians on a daily, daily basis. israel should return all Palestinian hostages back to their homeland #Palestine, alive and unharmed immediately and unconditionally. PLM Palestinian Lives Matter, Palestine has a right to defend itself from #tyranny.
After 10 days of detention by Israeli occupation forces, the traces of #torture on the body of Palestinian #prisoner Amir Shuja'iyeh from #Ramallah are evident.
Today in Labor History May 18, 1781: Tupac Amaru II was drawn and quartered in Plaza Mayor del Cuzco, Peru. Tupac II had led a large indigenous uprising against the Spanish conquistadors. As a result of his heroic efforts, he became an inspiration to others in the fight for indigenous rights and against colonialism. The uprising began because of “reforms” by the colonial administration that increased taxes and labor demands on both indigenous and creole populations. However, there was also an ongoing desire to overthrow European rule and restore the pre-conquest Incan empire. And though this would merely replace one feudal power with another, there were also Jacobin and proto-communist elements to the rebellion. Most of the Tupamarista soldiers were poor peasants, artisans and women who saw the uprising as an opportunity to create an egalitarian society, without the cast and class divisions of either the Spanish or Incan feudal systems.
The uprising began with the execution of Spanish colonial Governor Antonio de Arriaga by his own slave, Antonio Oblitas. Tupac Amaru II then made a proclamation claiming to be fighting against the abuses of Spain and for the peace and well-being of Indians, mestizos, mambos, native-born whites and blacks. They then proceeded to march toward Cuzco, killing Spaniards and looting their properties. Everywhere they went, they overthrew the Spanish authority. Tupac’s wife, Michaela Bastidas commanded a battalion of insurgents. Many claimed she was more daring and a superior strategist than her husband.
However, despite their strength and courage, the rebels failed to take Cuzco. The Spaniards brought in reinforcements from Lima. Many creoles abandoned the Inca army and joined the Spanish, fearing for their own safety after seeing the wanton slaughter of Spanish civilians. In the end, Tupac was betrayed by two of his officers and handed over to the Spanish. However, before they killed him, the Spanish forced him to watch them execute his wife, eldest son, uncle, brother-in-law, and several of his captains. They cut out both his wife’s and son’s tongue before hanging them.
As a result of Tupac’s leadership and success against the Spanish, he became a mythical figure in the Peruvian struggle for independence and in the indigenous rights movement. The Tupamaros revolutionary movement in Uruguay (1960s-1970s) took their name from him. As did the Túpac Amaru Revolutionary guerrilla group, in Peru, and the Venezuelan Marxist political party Tupamaro. American rapper, Tupac Amaru Shakur, was also named after him. Chilean poet, Pablo Neruda, wrote a poem called “Tupac Amaru (1781).” And Clive Cussler’s book, “Inca Gold,” has a villain who claims to be descended from the revolutionary leader.
Documentation shows the extent of #torture perpetrated by Israeli prison guards on the released #prisoner Adeeb Mustafa Samoudi while in the occupation’s “Gilboa” prison.
Samoudi, who is from #Jenin, spent a total of two years in Israeli prisons with no charges and was released yesterday.
#Israel / whistleblowers claim abuse of Palestinians at detention centre
Three Israeli whistleblowers working at the Sde Teiman desert camp say military responsible for series of abuses.
[…] The witnesses told #CNN the facility, some 18 miles from the Gaza frontier, is split into two parts: enclosures where around 70 Palestinian detainees from Gaza are placed under extreme physical restraint, and a field hospital “where injured detainees are immobilised, diapered, and fed through straws”.
[…] They paint a picture of a facility where doctors sometimes amputated prisoners’ limbs due to injuries sustained from constant handcuffing; of medical procedures sometimes performed by underqualified medics earning it a reputation for being “a paradise for interns”; and where the air is filled with the smell of neglected wounds left to rot.
