Groundless but RRZ posts it nevertheless

Well Mandy is a busy girl today.

They would say that wouldn't they.

Against all the evidence.

Are you telling us that children are always " interviewed " in the presence of their parents or a lawyer ? lets not use the word " interrogated " its such an emotive word. After all the Shin Bet are not the Stasi are they ?

And in democratic countries anyone arrested has the right to see a lawyer before interview, the right to have a lawyer attend any interview, and the entire interview is fully taped, the defence lawyers having full access to the tape.

None of this is so in the case of Palestinians in the west bank.

What does Israel have to hide ? Or has The Guardian etc alraedy told us

The bit I don't understand is why don't the Israeli authorities video and sound record the interviews?
If the occupation army is behaving within the law (and within the laws of decency) the interviews could quite easily be taped. Couldn't they?

It also struck me as 'strange' that following the killing of the Turkish activists on the Mavi Marmara, Israel did not return all the cameras, phones and other audio visual equipment it confiscated (stole) from the passengers and media. Surely the footage would have backed up Israel's claim that the heavily armed soldiers were attacked by 'terrorists'. Wouldn't it?

And why are children abducted in the middle of the night?

That doesn't sound like a 'democracy' at work.

People who have nothing to hide, hide nothing.

Lisa Nandy, MP for Wigan, who witnessed the trial of a shackled 14-year-old at Ofer last month, found the experience distressing. "In five minutes he had been found guilty of stone-throwing and was sentenced to nine months. It was shocking to see a child being put through this process. It's difficult to see how a [political] solution can be reached when young people are being treated in this manner. They end up with very little hope for their future and very angry about their treatment."

Horton said a guilty plea was "the quickest way to get out of the system". If the children say their confession was coerced, "that provides them with a legal defence – but because they're denied bail they will remain in detention longer than if they had simply pleaded guilty".

Let's just repeat that: 'a SHACKLED 14 year old'.

Any other democracies shackle children?

Shameful.

The US does it:

I do not condone the shackling of children but these unfortunately are not your average children. They have been indoctrinated to hate jews and are used cynically by their elders as human shields.
The most shameful thing and the real child abuse in reality is that perpetrated by Palestinian society and media that glorifies terrorists, suicide bombers and “martyrs”, encouraging Palestinian children from the tenderest age to follow the same path.
A vulnerable child is easy pickings for recruitment by terrorist organizations. In recent years the most predominant activities characterizing involvement of minors were involvement in suicide bomb attacks, Molotov cocktail throwing, stone throwing and stabbing. Minors have also been involved in grenade throwing, use of explosives, shooting, car bombs, transfer of weapons, kidnapping, rocket launching, as well as assault and murder. They have had bombs tied to their bodies and one case paid a few dollars to walk up to an Israeli checkpoint and detonate himself.

And while it suits Palestinian propaganda and some of the posters on this website to promote the image of children armed with stones facing Israeli armour, the reality is that stones can kill. As recently as September 2011, Asher Palmer and his infant son Yonatan were killed after the vehicle he was driving overturned as a result of Palestinian rock throwing - but to Goldie that's hardly shameful is it?

Mary I don't believe a word you write - that suit you.

Admirably thank you lol

So Mary were you present when the so-called "testimony" was taken which laughingly you call "evidence"?
Defence for Children Internatioanl - Palestine Section is a known anti-Israel campaigning NGO. DCI-PS’s politicized and anti-Israel agenda therefore puts its credibility in doubt. After all, if you are actively seeking evidence with which to attack Israel, then coaxing questionable testimony from minors who may have already been involved in criminal or terrorist activity may be easier than it should be. But of course they would say that wouldn't they?

Advr if I answer your question will you change your mind about not believing anything I say ?
