Nablus: Prison without trial. Tear gas. Live bullets into the crowd. But nothing to do with Israel.


Yesterday there was a rally in Nablus to protest the jailing of two members of the Halawa family accused of killing two PA security personnel a couple of years ago.

PA police responded with tear gas, live fire (according to witnesses) and arrests.

People being held in prison without trial? Police shooting tear gas and bullets at a supposedly peaceful rally?

Aren't those things that Israel is supposedly doing?

But I'm not seeing any NGOs say anything about this. Wonder why.

By the way, one of the prisoners escaped and is in hiding, showing the seriousness of the Palestinian prison system. It's a revolving door.
