For the international community, the ICC, the international press, and human rights organizations, the disenfranchised, defenseless people in Palestinian society are just a sacrifice on the altar of slandering Israel.

Particularly disturbing is the conspiracy of silence on the part of other countries, the international media, and international human rights groups. Not only do they perpetually turn a blind eye to these violations – which they know about – they mainly pin the blame obsessively on the "Israeli occupation." Indeed, the issue of torture in Palestinian prisons is nothing new.
