Melding fra Gideon Levy i Haaretz 20. juni 2024, HELE artikkelen nederst under Kilde.
Han er opptatt av gisler, og påpeker i en sterk ytring, at de palestinske gislene i israelsk forvaring er glemte:
"Photos of Palestinians Are Missing From Tel Aviv's Hostage Square"
Gideon Levy har flere eksempler der palestinere i israelsk forvaring er forhørt av Shin Bet slik at de ikke er til å kjenne igjen.
Og to fremstående leger fra Gaza er døde under israelsk forhør, under uklare omstendigheter.
Sammenligning med Guantanamo og Abu Ghraib gjør Levy når han omtaler Bassem Tamimi:
"His appearance after about eight months of incarceration and torture
should have shocked every Israeli, especially the relatives of the
hostages in Gaza. The pictures show a broken man: emaciated, his face
gaunt, his eyes red and weeping. Tamimi has been detained dozens of
times, usually political detentions without trial, but never after his
release before did he look as he did last week. The once-handsome,
charismatic man was a shell of his former self. Even his friends
struggled to recognize him at first. He resembled a detainee released
from Guantanamo Bay or Abu Ghraib."
Hva er det som skjer med palestinere under forvaring i Israel?

Photos of Palestinians Are Missing From Tel Aviv's Hostage Square

A picture is missing from the Tel Aviv plaza known as Hostages Square. A few dozen images are also missing from the nearby Kaplan Street demonstrations. These pictures have never been displayed in the protests, even though they belong there no less than the photographs of the Israeli hostages. The missing pictures, those of the Palestinian abductees, should have been the second focus of the protest, after the Israeli hostages. But not in the Israel of 2024. Here no one even thinks to consider them.
I would like to see, at the Kaplan demonstration this Saturday evening, a photo taken of the abductee Bassem Tamimi after his release from captivity in Israel. Tamimi was freed last week; he was abducted at the Allenby/King Hussein Crossing between the West Bank and Jordan on October 29 and imprisoned without trial.
His appearance after about eight months of incarceration and torture
should have shocked every Israeli, especially the relatives of the
hostages in Gaza. The pictures show a broken man: emaciated, his face
gaunt, his eyes red and weeping. Tamimi has been detained dozens of
times, usually political detentions without trial, but never after his
release before did he look as he did last week. The once-handsome,
charismatic man was a shell of his former self. Even his friends
struggled to recognize him at first. He resembled a detainee released
from Guantanamo Bay or Abu Ghraib.
He is a veteran political activist who has lost a few family members in
the struggle. His daughter Ahed became an international symbol of
Palestinian resistance at age 14 after she slapped
– heaven help us! – his excellency an Israeli army officer, who is
permitted to slap and even kill to his heart's desire. Tamimi has been
broken. Friends say he is panicky, frightened and in shock after what he
endured in the infamous prison wings for security detainees operating
in the spirit of Itamar Ben-Gvir.
The demonstrators need to show the picture of Tamimi after his release
from captivity for two reasons; one is humanitarian, the other
political. Tamimi's photo was circulated around the world. It gave
legitimacy to maltreating our hostages
as Tamimi was maltreated. It is liable to encourage Hamas to maltreat
them even more. That is why the hostages' families should also protest
furiously against the mistreatment of the abductees held by Israel.
The truth must be told: None of the Israeli hostages released so far looks, at least outwardly, as Tamimi does. The freed Israeli hostages endured a hell from which they will struggle to recover; no one is dismissing what they went through, but they did not look like wrecks of human beings as he did.
No
one is talking about Tamimi's hell, neither in Israel nor abroad. Free
the abductees? Only the Israeli ones. When people say abductees, they
mean the Israeli hostages. There are no others, even though Israel's
detention camps are full to bursting with abductees from Gaza and the
West Bank whose fates are unknown.
What of the Israeli hostages who died in captivity, every Israeli will
ask, and rightly so. And what of the Palestinian abductees who died,
every one of whose deaths or killings is unforgivable and a war crime?
This Saturday's Kaplan Street protest should also feature the image of
Dr. Iyad Rantisi, director of the women's hospital in Beit Lahia, who
died in a Shin Bet interrogation facility a week after he was abducted
from Gaza. As in the darkest regimes, human beings are disappeared; for
six months, news of his death was barred from publication. What's
important is our claims against the brutes from Hamas. On Tuesday, Hagar
Shezaf published the news of his death, not to say the news of his execution by torture during interrogation.
Rantisi is the second physician whom Israel tortured to death or caused to die in the war. The head of the orthopedics department at Al-Shifa Hospital fell victim to a similar fate, along with around 40 Palestinian abductees who died in the Sde Teiman camp and other places of evil in Israel.
All of their images should be displayed at Kaplan Street Saturday. They too were hostages who should have been treated humanely; some should have been freed. They too have families, just like our hostages.
