59. Nothing will be enough.
Sun May 17, 2026, 09:16 PM

The Nation as well as many human rights organizations and the U.N. rang the alarm in June, 2024 or earlier. People died from the abuse, at least 35 in the first 6 months alone but no one will ever know the real number. All done with the compliciþy of the doctors at these torture camps, echoing ugly history, and with the tacit or explicit approval of most Israelis.

If the reporting was even noticed or mentioned in the West at the time it was smeared and denied - just as it is now. It's all so depressingly predictable.

Too many still can't believe Israel is capable of such atrocities so Palestinians and even Israelis with a conscience must be lying.
