Israel holds over 370 Palestinian children captive

The media liaison at the Palestinian ministry in charge of prisoners' affairs says that Israel is currently holding captive more than 370 child detainees; all under the age of 18.

"Child detainees are sent to courts that prosecute cases of adult detainees. This is a flagrant violation of International Law. Dozens of detained Palestinian children undergo a series of harsh trials under a legal system that treats them the same as apprehended adults," Riyadh al-Ashqar told the official Hamas-run Al-Aqsa TV network on Monday.

Al-Ashqar went on to note that the child detainees are not immune to 'egregious abuses', adding mistreatment and torture in Israeli detention facilities are not uncommon.

He also called on the Geneva-based International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) and humanitarian organizations across the globe to intervene, to stop Israeli brutalities against underage Palestinian prisoners.

Many of the Palestinian children in Israeli jails are arrested for nothing more than throwing rocks at heavily-armed Israeli troops and armored personnel carriers, the Palestinian Center for Defending Prisoners reported in early April.

The prison authorities place eight to ten children in a four meter square room, and routinely vilify them, put them under psychological pressure at every turn and even molest some of the children, the report added.

Taliban executes 7-year-old child for ‘spying’
By Abdulhadi Hairan For CentralAsiaOnline.com 2010-06-09

KABUL–Taliban militants executed a 7-year-old child June 8 for “spying for the government” in the volatile Helmand province of Afghanistan.

Dawood Ahmadi, spokesman for the provincial governor, told Central Asia Online June 9 the insurgents kidnapped the child and hanged his body from a tree after killing him in the Sarwan Kala area of Sangin District.

I know it's horrifying news for you but we detain juveniles even in this country (probably the 'pomme' heritage or joo influence, one or the other.) What do you do with juvenile delinquents in Italia?

It's disgraceful.

From the UN:

Quote:

At any given point during the reporting period, between 281 and 337 Palestinian children were being held in Israeli prisons and detention centres, including children as young as 12 years, in violation of international humanitarian law. Statements taken from 21 children who had been arrested and detained indicate that children continued to be subjected to abuse, including beatings, blindfolding, solitary confinement, forced confessions in a language they do not read or write, food being withheld, yelling and insults, and exposure to loud noises. Upon release, a number of children reported that they had been approached to provide information on behalf of the Israeli intelligence service.

Why would that be a bad thing? When I was a child I always had trouble sleeping the night before Christmas because I was so excited about the next day. I'd imagine living on an Island where you get presents everyday would be great for kids; particularly refugee kids, who aren't used to getting many presents.

Their own kind? The last I heard the Taliban was in Afghanistan.

Palestine's a different country, dear.

Hmm, I wonder if he could possibly mean, "an Islamic Terrorist organisation"?
Hammas/Taliban, Taliban/Hammas.
You say Potayto, I say Potarto, Potayto, Potarto, it still ends up with some evil bastard convincing some 13 year old that Allah wants him to strap a bomb to his body and blow up as many people as they can.

No, but the fact that the Islamic terrorist organisations treat the children of their OWN people worse than Israel does, kind of puts the actions of Israel in a different light...

After all Israel 'arrests' the muslim children.....whereas the Islamic Terrorist groups execute the Islamic children....

Islams enemies treat Islams children BETTER than Islam does......
Interesting idea, isn't it????

Maybe, but definitely they were not raped and sexually molested as in Israeli jails.

The funny thing is that those who complain about antisemitism and holocaust not only do the same things but also enjoy them, what hypocrisy

Is it accidental? Of course not, Lets see what the Talmud says:

[b]Ioe Dea ( 157,2 Hagah )

“If a Jew is able to deceive Goyims by pretending he is a worshiper of the stars he may do so”
