Torture story from 2003!

A few days ago a friend posted a meme on facebook, the meme was made of a Picture of a Palestinian art student playing violin at Beit Eiba checkpoint near Nablus. The meme has the good intention of showing   how brave Palestinians are, facing the Israeli military oppression with music. Yet remembering the year 2004, when this picture was taken, we and the student appearing in the picture considered it a huge insult to the Palestinians in general and to us, students in particular, it was nothing but another attempt by the Israeli fascist to humilate the Palestinians! 

As we argued about the picture, I remembered a story in which the victim encountered an extreme brutality reflected by the Israeli fascist. When I went back home I looked up the report my friends wrote about this case, after reading it, I decided to Post it again. So here you go;

Qasem arm with Star of David curved on it

Qasem used to leave the city of Nablus once every two weeks in order to visit his family in Qalquilia for the weekend, after attending classes at An-Najah National University. At the end of last week, on Wednesday April 30th 2003, he was passing through the Surrah checkpoint on his way back home, when he was faced by two Israeli soldiers. One of them was a Captain. Qasem was one of 6 male students and 20 female students, all returning to their families in Qalqilia.

 Qasem was asked by one of the soldiers if he spoke Hebrew, answered in the affirmative. He was then asked to tell all the students to go back, that they were not allowed to pass the checkpoint. Qasem complied. The male students obeyed the order, while the female students did not move. The soldier spoke again, this time ordering Qasem to move the girls too, all the while cursing him.

The Israeli soldier was angry with Qasem, questioning him, checking his bags as well as his body. While he was checking the student's body, he noticed a spot on his arm, a burn mark. “It is the result of joking between me and my friend,” said Qasem. The soldier, laughing at his ability to bear pain, then took a piece of glass and broke it and, taking Qasem`s arm, began to cut into it a Star of David.

Qasem, feeling pain, started to move. The soldier, who was also the Captain, beat him on his legs, and pulling the arm to him continued his “painting”. Qasem noticed that the soldier drew the star perfectly. With the mutilation completed, Qasem saw that he was losing much blood, but he was not allowed to scream or even to complain. The Captain told Qasem that was enough, and “Isn't this star more beautiful than the other mark?” “Right?” He was then permitted to leave, not properly through the checkpoint but on a rough road. The soldier was apparently angered at news of a new resistance operation in Tel Aviv. 

Throughout this two hour experience, Qasem was alone with the Israeli soldiers, terrified that he would be killed, his family knowing nothing of his whereabouts. It was especially difficult, given that he had not been home for a month. He was completely humiliated and a great deal of his time was wasted. 

Qasem the Law student is again in Nablus, attending his classes at An-Najah University, but he will not go back to see his family until he has finished this semester. He also has a very embarrassing tattoo to live with, on top of everything else.

Nabisaleh, another night raid

The Israeli army raided Nabisaleh again, and as before they raided the house of Bilal Tamimi. The Israeli army this time insisted on waking up the children, including Bilal 5 years old daughter.

In the video and as Bilal refused to wake up his own daughter, one of the soldiers said "If you don't want to wake them up, we will do that!" in Arabic. His deceleration was met with an angry protest from Manal Tamimi, Bilal's wife. Obviously the captain ordered his Arabic speaking soldier fuck off, as the soldier gave up seconds later.

Funny story, the soldier felt so threatened from Manal's words, he responded "like wet scared cat" he is not from the Arab Druz minority, which might be true.
PS: He might be from the former South Lebanon Army(SLA) that collaborated with the Israeli occupation through out Israel's occupation of southern Lebanon and fled it when Israel withdrawn it's forces in April 2000.

Later, one soldier attempted to take Manal's photo using his cellphone, but as Manal and Bilal protested the soldier attempt and asked for a justification for this attempt. While Manal was protesting the soldier kept on saying "will u listen to me!?". When Manal told him, he can talks, he got an order over the radio, and simply walked away...
I will kill to know what he wanted to say!

Watch the video bellow.

 

Salute to Bilal and Manal for their bravery.

Israel is an Apartheid State

No, I am not talking about the Israeli discrimination policies against the Palestinian who live under the Israeli military occupation in the west bank. or the second class Palestinian citizens of Israel.  
I am talking about the discrimination against the African asylum seekers, who walked the desert, crossed borders in search of decent life in the only democracy in middle east. 
Most of those refugees end up living in the streets of Tel Avive. enslaved by the employers who spoiled their illegal status, paying them almost nothing, and granting them few rights if any. 


Watch this 57 minutes video made by Israeli human rights defenders to learn more!.

This video is a solid evidence that Israel as a government practice segregation, racism, and exploitation of people from different ethnicity, race and religion to ensure the superiority of the Jews. 
the same apply on almost all of the western world, not just Israel.

Khader Adnan

In December 17, 2011 the Israeli Fascist Forces (IFF) raided a house in Arraba, a village outside the west bank city of Jenin. The Fascist -well armed- soldiers used a blindfolded man as a human shield to raid the house, they forced him to call for Khader Adnan.
As soon as the soldiers entered the house, they recognized the target, and grabbed him violently in front of his 2 young daughters and ill mother.

Khader Adnan

 Khader Adnan was handcuffed with plastic shackles, blindfolded and pushed into the Jeep floor, where the soldiers stroke him through the 10 minutes drive to "Dutan" Settlement. Although Khader was arrested at 3:30AM the Fascist kept him handcuffed until 8:30AM when they transferred him Meggido prison. 

At this point and in his first day of detention Khader Adnan bagan a hunger strike in protest of his unjust arrest and the inhuman treatment he received.

Next day, Khader was taken to Al Jalameh interrogation center where he got a medical examination. Although he notified the prison doctor of his medical conditions as he suffer from gastric illness and disc problems, he received no treatments. Instead, he was taken to interrogation straight after the exam. 

The interrogation lasted for 10 days, at the beginning Khader cooperated and answered the general question, but after he was verbally abused by the interrogator, Khader went in speaking strike, and refused to talk or cooperate with the Fascist interrogator.

Khader Adnan, was taken to the court in Monday, January 30, at the same day he informed his lawyer he will start a liquid strike. "Refusing to drink water or any other form of liquids".
The court postponed Khader case until Wednesday, February 1.

Khader Adnan entered the court today on wheel chair, as he could walk no more, and his health is getting worse in the hospital where they keep him chained to the bed with 3 guards surrounding him!
47 Days has passed since Khader Adnan started his hunger strike, and until now, the prison administration gave the man nothing but promises to fulfill his demands. and threats to force feed him.

PS: If you didn't like the terms I used to describe the Israeli Fascism... well, I will be glade to know how you define Fascism.

This is How Israel Interrogate

The Israeli Chanel 2 made a report about the methods used by the Israeli inelegance during Shaikh Mustafa Drini interrogation, the leaked video is mainly in Arabic as the Interrogator spoked it with their victim, but the report itself is in Hebrew. I think you will get the idea. A man with no clothes but a jacket"sometimes" and 3 men threatening to rape him.

In a part of the video you can hear the interrogators threatening him in shoving a stick up in his rectum and taking a picture of him with stick in his ass. Shaikh Mustafa Dirini, talked in an interview following his release in the prisoner swap with Hizbuallah in 2004 about how the interrogators actually did shove a stick in his ass, also a couple of M14 assault rifles bullets as well.
He didn't leave the Israeli prison without filing a complains against his rapist.

Photo grapes from the video:

after watching this video, I could think of nothing but, Long live the resistance the only way to shove death into those Nazi hearts and minds.
