The IDF raided the hospital in the southern Gazan city of Khan Younis - which was one of the few in the Strip still functioning - on 15 February, saying intelligence indicated that the hospital housed Hamas operatives.
Medical staff said that they were then taken into a hospital building, beaten, and then transported to a detention facility, all while undressed.
Dr Abu Sabha, the 26-year-old newly qualified doctor and volunteer medic at Nasser, described some elements of his treatment while in detention as torture, such as making detainees stand for hours without a break. He said other punishments given to detainees included being made to lie on their stomach for prolonged periods and delaying their meals.
These are actual war crimes, but it’s precious Isrealis doing them to Palestinians and that makes it justice according to countries like the USA, Canada (the most ashamed I’ve ever been of my country), Britain, and Germany. I wish Palestinian lives were considered as valuable as others, because there’s no way any of those nations would not just tolerate but support it happening to NATO citizens.
It seems like Israel don’t just take their military equipment from the U.S. but also their treatment of non-combatants. Abu Ghraib, anyone?
