May 2007, Joint report with Hamoked - Center for the Defence of the Individual, Summary
This is an Israeli Human Rights group I've always had much respect for. They play both sides.
Now they add to all the allegations over the years, allegations now shown beyond a doubt, of Israeli round up and then subsequent torture of Palestinian youths. Horrid how through this they manufacture and make a terrorist. Horrible the hypocricy and how this is against recent Supreme Court findings in every conceivable way. Sickening but a must read.

Utterly Forbidden: The Torture And Ill-Treatment Of Palestinian Detainees
In recent years, Israel has openly admitted that ISA (formerly the General Security Service) interrogators employ "exceptional" interrogation methods and "physical pressure" against Palestinian detainees in situations labeled "ticking bombs". B'Tselem and HaMoked - Center for the Defence of the Individual have examined these interrogation methods and the frequency with which they are used, as well as other harmful practices. The report's findings are based on the testimonies of 73 Palestinian residents of the West Bank who were arrested between July 2005 and January 2006 and interrogated by the ISA. Although it is not a representative sample, it does provide a valid indication of the frequency of the reported phenomena. |
and this astonishing fact, showing how "militaristic" Israeli society has become and how the dehumanizing process is also an Israeli trait....

Despite the fact that since 2001 the State Attorney's Office received over 500 complaints regarding ill-treatment by ISA interrogators, it has not found cause to order the instigation of a single criminal investigation. |
Please read the recommendations.
