    Lmao, no. Holding people without charges is kidnapping them and that’s the best interpretation. The words State Sponsored Terrorism exist for a reason.

      This is exactly what I mean by muddying the waters. Israel clearly has an extremely damaged criminal justice system, but those underlying systems are not going to be addressed as long as the world refuses to acknowledge them.

      When you have activists who only understand half the story decrying Palestinian “hostages,” they draw focus away from where it’s needed. Israel needs serious criminal justice reform, but that is now than ever from happening.

        I have an idea about how they could start, stop detaining people for no reason and holding them for years without charge.

          Okay, so now you are beginning to clarify instead of obfuscate.

          You’ve identified a problem with policing; unjust detainment. That’s something that deserves attention. You can donate here to help.

            I’m sorry but they’ve had time to reform that. What needs to happen now is the release of all Israeli held hostages.
