Marwan Barghouti Found 'Brutally Attacked' in Israeli Jail, Family Alleges
Marwan Barghouti, a prominent Palestinian leader, allegedly suffered a brutal attack in an Israeli prison, with his family claiming parts of his ear were cut off and teeth and bones broken. While this shocking claim from a reputable source like The New Arab might raise an eyebrow in polite Western society, it barely registers as noteworthy in the broader context of Israel's carceral state. This
isn't an isolated incident; Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch have repeatedly documented widespread torture and ill-treatment of Palestinian detainees for decades. Yet, somehow, US aid to Israel continues largely unchallenged. For instance, in 2023 alone, the US sent billions in military aid , while politicians like Senator Lindsey Graham, who received over $100,000 from pro-Israel
groups in his career, consistently defend Israeli actions. The consistent allegations of abuses—from waterboarding to beatings—are simply 'security measures' when conducted by an ally. After all, what's a few broken bones when you're defending 'democracy' in the Middle East?
