Palestinian men and boys in Gaza describe the torture, humiliation, and dehumanization that they suffered during their time as captives of the Israeli occupation forces. “They forced us to make dogs’ sounds,” one man tells the camera. “If you refused to do so, they would beat you.” Another tells the reporter, “When they saw us falling asleep, they would come with a lighter and burn our backs with it.”
“Every hour was like years,” the same man says. “The torture was unbelievable.” Reports have emerged in recent days of mass roundups, torture, and execution of men and boys in Beit Hanoun and other parts of north Gaza. Detainees were identified by loved ones and others in the community who recognized them from the photos the occupation forces have been releasing.
As more footage and testimony are released, the depth of the horrors inflicted upon our people in Gaza are being brought to light. While we may never know the full extent of those horrors, what we already know is enough for any person of conscience to be able to identify as war crimes that are as depraved as they are systematic.
“My message for the world is to look at those detainees,” the final detainee tells viewers. “We are respected people. We are not animals.”
Horrifying testimonies from Gaza civilians released by Israel after being falsely labeled as Hamas members. They endured unspeakable torture, human dignity stripped away, subjected to hunger, electric shocks, and medical neglect leading to fatalities. Hundreds held for propaganda, enduring brutal and inhumane treatment. [source: @/ RamAbdu on X. 12/18/23.]
Why is the western media not interviewing Palestinian civilians abducted by Israel? Harrowing testimonies. Israeli soldiers urinated on them, spat on them, starved them, beat them, gave them electric shocks, and kept them blindfolded & fettered in uncomfortable positions for days on end. Some reportedly died from the freezing cold and medical neglect. [source: @/ abedtakriti on X.]
This is not including all the children who are lifeless underneath the rubble and not including the ones that were obliterated to the point where they cannot be identified. Free Palestine

BISAN IS AFRAID THIS MAY BE HER LAST VIDEO. THE OCCUPATION IS PLANNING TO INVADE NASSER HOSPITAL IN KHAN YUNIS, THE LAST FUNCTIONING HOSPITAL IN THE GAZA STRIP.
I think the most disgusting things you could say in relation to the Palestinian genocide are "It's way too complex of a situation and I'm not educated enough to speak on it" and "Both sides are just as bad as one another."
Like fuck you, you've had not just these past 4-ish months, but also ANY TIME WITHIN THE PAST FEW FUCKING DECADES to educate yourself on this situation. There is no way you can just claim a lack of education on the matter to weasel your way out of discussions, get fucking educated, go look for actual information and see what's happening to the innocent Palestinians.
And taking the position that both sides are awful is fucking disgraceful. No one but the murder-hungry cocksuckers of Russia said both sides were just as bad as each other when Russia was (AND DOES STILL CONTINUE TO) bombard Ukraine each day, so why is it suddenly that both sides are just as bad as one another here, you stupid fucking morons. One side is getting bombed every single day, tortured, stripped, humiliated, and murdered, while the other comes onto social media saying they're so scared for their lives while sitting their fucking mini-mansions.
To those saying the ICJ ruling doesn’t matter because Israel won’t abide by it…
The Algerian liberation wasn’t won by armed resistance only the international pressure on France was just as important if not more.
South Africa didn’t put an end to Apartheid through armed resistance only the international pressure on apartheid was just as important if not more.
This ruling, if in favors of Palestinians (which is the only legitimate outcome) could send a message to the world but mainly to Israel’s allies.
International support is needed just as much as armed struggle. Armed struggle without the isolation of the colonizer/oppressor is a very hard thing. Which is why this is important and it’s also important for us pro Palestinians folks in the West to keep protesting to keep boycotting and to keep pressuring our governments.
Palestine will be free in our time Incha’Allah and we will witness Palestinian celebrating and we will celebrate with them.
