    Without giving them the benefit of the doubt, it’s because they are being processed through the Israeli military court system.

    Wait, military court system? Give me a sec here. Let’s check Wikipedia… Hmm…

    Modeled on the British military court system?!?

    1967-87: One in three Palestinians detained… 500,000… Children and women pleading with soldiers…

    Indefinite administrative detention without trial… “secret evidence”…coercion…

    Ok, claims of physical torture, lack of education, defacto denial of lawyers…

    You know, I didn’t know what I was expecting from an entry called Palestinian prisoners in Israel, but I feel sick just reading this…

      Not to forget that in most cases they cannot be visited by their relatives. I really don’t know how the West is okay with a lot of Israel’s policies.
