Israel Offers 'Abuse Ahead of Release' Program for Palestinians
Palestinian detainees, blindfolded and hands tied, were forced to bow by Israeli prison officers, according to The New Arab. This 'pre-release ritual' allegedly ensures they understand their 'place' before re-entering society. Critics might call it abuse, but perhaps it's just 'enhanced interrogation' to remind them who's in charge. Ignoring decades of reports detailing systematic mistreatment,
the media rarely connects these incidents to a broader policy of dehumanization. These aren't rogue officers; this is a feature, not a bug, in an occupation system upheld by billions.
