"Monday March 4, 2013, Palestinian Minister of Detainees, Issa Qaraqe’, stated that the Palestinian detainees in the Galboa’ Israeli prison, are holding a one-day hunger strike, as an initial step, part of activities in support of hunger striking detainees, and to protest the ongoing Israeli violations"

Qaraqe’ stated 120-140 detainees declared hunger strike and returned their meals as part of further steps, in support of hunger striking detainees and in retaliation to the death of detainee Arafat Jaradat who was tortured to death.

Alsoo, it is reported that on Sunday at night, the army broke into Section 11 of the Negev Detention Camp, and attacked several detainees. Israeli sources reported that an Israeli officer was injured in the eye after being punched by a detainee when the army broke into Section 6 of the Negev Camp.

"Reports coming out of different detention camps and prisons indicate increasing tension due to escalating Israeli violations against the detainees, including forcing dozens of detainees into solitary confinement, and repeatedly breaking into and searching their rooms.

The Ahrar Center for Detainee’s Studies and Human Rights reported that the army carried out more than 15 attacks against the detainees in February, and that most of the attacks targeted Palestinian detainees held in Majiddo and the Negev prisons."

this is getting exciting ---we are witnessing the evolution of a "religion"

in our lifetimes----SAINTS have arisen via new paths-----girls who put
bombs on their stinking asses in order to murder children are rendered
saints and queens of JANNAH----- and now boys---who slit the throats
of infants become SAINTS destined for Jannah and eternal orgasm
with 72 eternal whories ---and the LATEST
----idiots who starve themselves to death for the glory of the ass
bombers and throat slitters and allah, isa and the rapist-----
ALSO END UP SAINTS IN JANNAH

I believe that "canonization" is an outgrowth of the
ancient roman custom of declaring a living person
one of the "gods"-----but canonization is harmless
it did morph into---an hnnor for positive reasons----
the JIHADISTS TOOK IT BACK TO ROME

I am reading a Facebook Report about the healh condition of hunger strike Palestinian political prisoner Ayman Sharawna , that he is in very bad health, this reportedly comes from his attorney. I think there may have been a visit allowed between him and Ayman on Sunday.

I have not found any news articles or other documents addressing this in any more detail then this, but I will update this story as I learn more.

I am at a bit of a disadvantage with some of the Facebook pages, I cannot read Arabic and the translations are awful sometimes, if the translator even works.

I am having a conversation right now with a woman in Gaza, trying to get more information.

Sherri

This is the report on the meeting with Ayman and his attorney, translated by my computer, Bing, from Arabic.

"The Director of the legal unit in the prisoners ' Club Jawad Boulos, the captive Ayman charawneh sleeping in Soroka Hospital in Be'er Sheva ', is a very difficult and very vulnerable, and his transfer to the hospital after his health deteriorated.Paul said in a statement released by the prisoners ' Club, after visiting the captive Ayman charawneh, said Tuesday that the charawneh surrounded by warders who act a provocation to harass him, eat with him in a desperate attempt to dissuade him from continuing the strike, despite the many claims for wardens and nurses to cease those acts but they continue to do so.He noted that prisoners ' charawneh told him he suffers from pain throughout his body, and he lost weight 50 kg since waged battle strike, and doctors warned him that his kidneys were untreatable form later, the prisoner can not eject fluid this indicates damage hit his kidneys. Captive stressed that continuing his hunger strike until a solution ensuring liberty and rights.Palestine-Ramallah"

Ahrar: Occupation forces released today prisoner Jehad Abu Msallam from Balatah refugee camp in Nablus after spending 9 years in jails and he was transferred immediately to the hospital because he suffers from nerve disease during his arrest in the occupation jails

This is something we see altogether too often lately, prisoners released from detention after recieving inadequate medical treatment while detained. A number of cases prisoners have been released only to die within days of their release.

Israel is occupying Israel? Even Muslim scholars deny Israel is occupying others' land.

Muslim Commentator Burak Bekdil, Hurriyet [Turkey]

Hardly a day passes in the Islamic world (or in the western intellectual world) without people standing up against and decrying the occupation of “al-Quds” (otherwise known as Jerusalem). In this column I have often argued otherwise: A counter-occupation is no occupation.

Now, dear Islamists, I have a “witness” whom I guess you could hardly refute. Forget my words and listen to what Turkey’s top Muslim cleric, Professor Mehmet Görmez, had to say just last week: “After the Prophet Omar conquered al-Quds he was invited to pray at a church (since there were no mosques in Jerusalem). But he politely refused because he was worried that the (conquering) Muslims could turn the church into a mosque after he prayed there.”

Now, read that line once again, or a thousand times if you wish to: “After the Prophet Omar conquered al-Quds…” And think about why there were no mosques in Jerusalem at the time of the conquest. Still no clue? Allow me to explain: Because Jerusalem was not a Muslim city. And now you claim it back because it is under “Jewish occupation!”

The refusal to pray at the church was very noble of the Prophet Omar. I personally do not expect you, dear Islamists, to behave as virtuously and gallantly as the prophet, but at least you can do something easier: Stop fighting for a city that belonged to other faiths before your ancestors conquered it. And please recall my witness when you flood my inbox with more hate-mail tomorrow. Or is Professor Görmez, too, an infidel like me?BURAK BEKD?L - The Nazi teen and the occupation of Jerusalem

"Ahrar— Ahrar center for prisoner studies and human rights strongly denounced the Israel military court of Ofer for issuing harsh prison sentences against Palestinian children under age 18. The Israeli Fouad Al-Khuffash said that these sentences did not take into account that the detainees are under age 18, and violated the international law which forbids the detention of children under this age."

Salem military court, north of Jenin, has sentenced two Palestinian children to one year and half behind bars, for throwing stones at Israeli occupation forces.

The children are: Waleed Nasr Shuqair, 16 years old and Khalil Ibrahim Shuqiar, 17 years old and they are from Azawieh town near Salfeet in the West Bank.

"Israel’s abuse of Palestinian children had become so dramatic a phenomenon that it attracted the attention of nine eminent English lawyers, who were led by Sir Stephen Sadley, a former judge of the highest British court, to visit Israeli courts to study their practices. The lawyers, then, published their findings in a report titled “Children in Military Custody” , in which they accuse Israel of grave violations of the UN Convention on the Rights of Children that include violation of article 2; discrimination, article 3; child’s best interests, article 37 (B); premature resort to detention, (C); non-separation from adult family members, and (D); prompt access to lawyers, and article 40; use of shackles. The Israeli arrest, detention and interrogation practices are in violation of paragraphs 36 and 37, and article 37(A) in the prohibition of cruel, inhumane or degrading treatment. Transporting a child prisoner from the occupied territories into Israel is in violation of article 76 of the Fourth Geneva Convention. The failure to provide translated military orders and alleged confession statements from Hebrew to Arabic is a violation of article 65 of the Fourth Geneva Convention.

In their report the lawyers criticized and greatly condemned the belief and attitude, that were advanced to them by the military prosecutors, that every Palestinian child is a “potential terrorist” similar to what the Nazis claimed when criticized for removing Jewish children at places like Dachau and Auschwitz. The report had prompted the British Foreign Office to reveal that it would challenge Israeli courts over their unconscionable practices and violations of the many articles of UN Convention in their treatment of Palestinian children."

Report | Children in Military Custody

About this Report:

"Children in Military Custody assesses the treatment of Palestinian children under Israeli military law, examining each stage in the process: arrest, interrogation, bail hearings and plea bargains, trial, sentencing, detention and complaints. The report deals with a comparative analysis of Israeli domestic law as it applies to Israeli children and Israeli military law as it applies to Palestinian children. The central questions addressed are: what are the differences between the two systems and is there any justification for these differences."

The Report specifically assesses 1) the applicability of international human rights and humanitarian law, including the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.
2) It discusses compliance with international standards.
3) It highlights the differences between Israeli domestic law, applied to Israeli children and Israeli military law, applied to Palestinian children in the West Bank.
4) Recommendations are made on ways to address the inequalities between the two legal systems and areas for further development are suggested

In military court cases observed by No Legal Frontiers in 2010-11, 98% of cases surveyed ended in a custodial sentence, with suspended sentences in the remaining 2%. In 90% or more of cases surveyed by No Legal Frontiers a fine was also imposed. DCI and B’Tselem report that if parents fail to pay the fine, the child will serve additional days in prison.

89.The prescribed sentence for stone-throwing under Military Order 1651 is 10 years if directed at a person or property, and 20 years if directed at a vehicle. The maximum penalty which can be imposed on a 12 or 13-year-old is six months imprisonment. Defence for Children International reports that custodial sentences for children generally range from two weeks to 10 months for stone-throwing. B’Tselem reports that the median period for 14 to 16-year-olds is 2 ½ months and for 16 to 18-year-olds 4 months. The Israeli Government reported similarly that the average number of days in detention (where the imprisonment exceeded 21 days) was 181 in 2011 (approximately 6 months). B’Tselem also noted that of the 32 children in their sample aged 12 to 13, 31% were given a custodial sentence ranging from one to two months. The Israeli Government stated that imprisonment of children under the age of 14 is rare. We were unable to form our own view of this as data from this age group was not incorporated in the official Israeli statistics supplied to us. We were informed in our meeting with the Ministry of Justice that there had been a decrease in the detention of under-14s, with 25 cases in 2009, 14 in 2010 and 1 in 2011 to the date of meeting, who had been detained for 4 days. The military prosecutors made reference to the Attorney General’s Guidelines which apply in Israel and which give a guideline sentence of 3 to 4 months for a 16 yr old with no previous convictions."
