Two Israeli officers have testified that troops in the West Bank beat, bound and blindfolded Palestinian civilians as young as 14.

The disclosure has added to the controversy. Innocent people were beaten and handcuffed. Israel cannot justify this violence against Palestinians.

The army has justifed hitting Palestinians who are detained. This is proof that Israel is mis-treating Palestinians and this is widespread

Widepread mis-treatment with curses, humiliation, pulling hair and ears, kicks, slaps. These things are the normal.

And yet we wonder why people hate Israel. IMO Israel is way too cocky. I suppose the reason for Israel's arrogance is partly our fault. if we left Israel alone, they might think twice about pissing all their neighbors off.
