Joanna Cherry: "One of the many reasons I left the SNP was the sort of dishonesty which pretends not to know the difference between concerns about poor governance, mismanagement of funds & bullying of whistleblowers as opposed to criminality which the FM has displayed today at #FMQs;"

Children were "labelled as fighters even after (age confirmed) - held alongside adults in Israeli military and prison facilities." Subjected to "beatings, prolonged blindfolding, attacks by dogs, electric shocks, forced nudity and sexual assault, including rape and threats of rape." #OpDeathEaters

The report documented the systematic mistreatment of detained Palestinian children. Boys aged 12 and over were separated during mass arrests, labelled as fighters even after identity cards confirmed their age, and held alongside adults in Israeli military and prison facilities. The Commission recorded beatings, prolonged blindfolding, attacks by dogs, electric shocks, forced nudity and sexual assault, including rape and threats of rape against boys. One 15-year-old described 54 days of repeated interrogation and torture, including being electrocuted through a needle in his shoulder. The Commission concluded the treatment amounted to torture, enforced disappearance and persecution based on age intersecting with nationality and gender. In the West Bank, more than 1,655 children were detained after October 2023, 600 of them in 2025. As of 31 December 2025, 51 per cent of 351 child detainees were held in administrative detention, imprisoned indefinitely without charge, a record number. A 17-year-old from Ramallah died in Megiddo prison on 22 March 2025. An autopsy found severe prolonged malnutrition; the Commission found his death amounted to the war crimes of torture and wilful killing. As of 17 February 2025, Israel was withholding the bodies of 40 Palestinian children.

UN inquiry finds Israel deliberately targeted Gaza children, amounting to genocide www.yacnews.com/un-inquiry-f...

Countries that have spoken out against Israel’s genocide in Gaza and other barbaric behaviour have been targeted by that nation of psychopaths. Did Israel’s attempt to influence our SGE have the approval of their shills in ukgov, or did Starmer and co. merely turn a blind eye?
