Since Israel's war on Gaza began in October, many Palestinians detained by Israeli forces have said they were sexually abused by troops at Sde Teiman.

However, no one had been arrested for the abuse until 29 July, when military police raided the facility, clashed with the soldiers and took them into custody.

On Sunday, the Institute for National Security Studies (INSS) revealed that 65 percent of Israeli Jews thought that the five should be punished only by the army and not face criminal charges.

The same INSS poll on Sunday also revealed that 47 percent of Israeli Jews believed Israel should not obey international law during the course of the current war in Gaza.

Prison rape is part of Israel’s genocide of Palestinians.

Makes sense that the majority of colonizers support it.

Zionism is a cancer on Judaism.

A little bit of whataboutism, but

A majority of people almost everywhere (I've linked the US specifically) don't care about prison rape.

This is not an Israel specific (or even a colonizer specific) issue.

The US has a very unhealthy attitude towards prisons as well. It definitely isn't a good source for people "almost anywhere".

[–] FirstCircle@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 weeks ago

The US is very fond of prison forced-labor (slavery) as well, and the general population doesn't really care. In fact the general population most likely thinks the slaves (prisoners) suffering slavery is just a case of them getting what they deserve.
