We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

Israel should be disarmed.

I was reticent to post this, given that it's based off of one person's hearsay. What tipped me over is that it is confirmation of stories also relayed by Palestinian prisoners in the fall of 2025 (linked in the article) about the goings on in the Sde Teiman torture camp.

Al-Jazeera by the way reports that the IDF soldiers who were at the center of a very public case of gruesome sexual abuse of prisoners in the same torture camp are returning to duty.

End the genocidal Israeli apartheid regime. Boycott Divest Sanction. Criminals at the Hague.

Thank you for the context. It's important.

Yes, someone who could not possibly have heard the Palestinian allegations has come forward to say they are true.

Of the two guards he spoke to, “one had seen this happen and said it was too awful to talk about. The other said that he had heard about it from others and believed it was true. This happened. This is happening still. The evidence is too overwhelming.”

I wouldn't call this overwhelming evidence. Could it have happened? Painfully, yes. Should an article have been published that guards have admitted this happens? Not on this evidence.

i think regardless of the veracity of the article, the fact that israel has a TORTURE CAMP is something that should be highlighted

[–] AmidFuror@fedia.io 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

I don't think that's the official name.

[–] theacharnian@lemmy.ca 1 points 35 minutes ago

That would be funny.

meanwhile Palestinians are forced into begging online for the means of survival, the bare minimum, that they should already be getting and they're being labeled scammers. we are all complicit in this.
