Palestinian Hostage-Taking: The Biggest Violation of International Law and Morality This Century
(Telegraph-UK) Charles Moore - The 250 hostages taken from Israel by Palestinians from Gaza on Oct. 7, in operations which included mass murder and rape, and involved extreme violence towards and humiliation of those kidnapped, included old people, sick people, women and children. Contrary to all law, they were denied any rights as prisoners. They were often held without light, sanitation, and without enough food. Those who were Jews were treated even worse than those who were not. Some were beaten, some molested. Some died of wounds or illness. Some were killed in captivity. Eleven months later, all this is still going on. It must be the biggest continuous, organized non-state violation of international law and morality this century. Strange how muted are the protests of Western governments and international organizations against these atrocities.
