Pedophiles, Rapists and murderers in the UK and Europe are treated a thousand better than Palestinians held without charge or trial in Israeli prisons.

What my prior commentators cannot fathom is that people can change through their acts, setting aside the proposition that arrest in itself identifies terrorism. It is very important to these prior deep thinkers that labels be applied absent ambiguity. The label is something like original sin, which can only be cleansed by appropriate submission. When I hear of a 66 day hunger strike (so long that essential organs like the heart and kidneys may have been weakened permanently–but that is a good thing, label wise, no?) I wonder what propelled the resolve, and what man came out the other side. You need to break labels if you wand to find a path elsewhere. But that, dear fellows, is your greatest fear.

On the other hand, if you consider the quality of some TV programs, you might assume that having to watch tehm can be regarded as torture ! : – )

Let’s see. Terrorists are on hunger strike because they are unhappy with being denied television in prison where they are serving time for their terrorist acts? I am assuming that there is some kind of a moral problem with this since it was published as an article here but I honestly don’t understand what it is.

Maybe the Israeli taxpayer will catch a break on food costs. They should institute a 3 fast day week regime.
