Itamar Ben-Gvir, Israel’s national security minister, is planning to present Benjamin Netanyahu with a plan to detain the activists in harsh “terrorist-level” conditions in the Ktzi’ot and Damon detention centres for females, according to Israel Hayom, one of Israel’s biggest newspapers…

Israel Hayom quoted individuals close to Mr Ben-Gvir saying: “Following several weeks at Ktzi’ot and Damon, they’ll be sorry about the time they arrived here. We must eliminate their appetite for another attempt.”

    Ah yes, because as everyone knows the best way to stop determined activists from talking about your human rights abuses is to show them first hand your human rights abuses. I’m sure they’ll just shut up after that.

      This is the “stop crying, or I’ll give you something to cry about” bad parent approach.
      Next will be the “look what you’ve made me do” abusive partner approach. Classics!
      It’s almost as if the Israeli government and military are abusers…

        Sure, but it still seems to be like a simply stupid move on their part. They’re gonna turn one of the most influential activists of this generation from an outside observer to an eye witness

          It’s almost as if violence is only stopped by violence

          eh, yeah… that’s been working out great since the uk sold all that land to two different people and walked away from the shitshow.

          I think we’re in a situation where we have to take the decision making power out of the hands of people guided by religious rhetoric and malignant monocultural motivation in order to see any real, lasting change.

          they almost had this a few times on both sides but the religious nutbags kept assassinating them. the trick is to get secularist people who recognize a multicultural society is stronger than the alternatives, jihad and genocide.
