Shocking images have begun to emerge from inside prisons, revealing a reality beyond endurance. This photo was taken yesterday of a young man who was transferred directly to the hospital after his release from prison, his body exhausted and severely damaged by neglect. The doctor who examined him was in shock, saying she had never seen such a case before. Norwegian scabies is spreading rapidly inside prisons, leading to a severe deterioration in prisoners’ health. There is no medical care, no medication, no water for bathing, no hygiene supplies, and not even clean clothes. Suffering worsens day after day with no intervention. Where is the world in all of this? Where are those who speak about human rights? What is happening is not just neglect, but a humanitarian catastrophe being committed in silence… as if these victims do not exist.

When my brother was released from prison, he was no longer the same it was not just a release, but as if he carried with him the pain of everyone who remained there. He told us about the spread of severe skin diseases among the prisoners, caused by long months without bathing, without changing clothes, in the absence of water and any means of hygiene or sterilization. He said the suffocating smells filled the cells, and their bodies ached from constant neglect. He told us about the extreme overcrowding in the cells, where dozens were crammed into a space too small for them, with no room to sit or sleep, taking turns lying down, spending long hours standing. No air, no sunlight, only closed walls and a suffocating confinement that crushed the spirit before the body. He spoke about interrogations… about the harsh, repeated torture, the beatings, humiliation, and psychological pressure, just because he was from Gaza. He told us about starvation, about meals that were not enough even for a child, and a constant feeling of dizziness and exhaustion. He told us about the biting cold, about long nights without blankets, shivering until morning, and wet clothes that never dried. About sickness… about unbearable pain, untreated wounds, and medicine denied to them, as if they were left to suffer in silence. But what was worse than all of this… was the psychological destruction. He told us they were deprived of sleep for days, the lights kept on day and night, and shouting in their faces continuously. Sometimes they were forced to sleep while their hands were bound, in painful positions, unable to move or rest. He said they were subjected to humiliating searches repeatedly, stripped of privacy and dignity. He told us about isolation, total disconnection from the world, no letters, no visits, no knowledge of their fate or their families… only emptiness, fear, and waiting. He told us about moments when some completely broke under the pressure, silent crying in the dark, losing hope, people who changed completely and were no longer the same. Some became mentally ill, some lost the ability to speak, and some lived in total silence. He told us things things the mind cannot comprehend, and the heart cannot bear. We listened, caught between shock and helplessness, as if hearing about another world but it was real. The condition of prisoners in the jails is tragically beyond description. All of this happens, is reported, and yet nothing changes.

Watch Israeli soldiers beating and arresting Christians who were celebrating Orthodox Easter in Jerusalem: 🎥 Rafi Ghattas
Varsen Aghabekian Shahin@VarsenAghShahin

Assault on Christian worshippers during Holy Saturday in Jerusalem is a direct attack on freedom of worship. Blocking access to Church of Holy Sepulchre violates #internationallaw &status quo. A systematic policy targeting Palestinian Christian presence in occupied Jerusalem.

We absolutely need to investigate the accusations against Swalwell, and prosecute him if necessary. But the fact that this is big news, and 40+ similar accusations against Donald Trump isn't, is beyond me. api.omarshehata.me/substack-proxy…

@nntaleb The death of the king and the destruction of the Hungarian army led to the collapse of the independent Kingdom of Hungary and its subsequent division between the Ottoman Empire and the Habsburgs. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of…

In 1526, the Ottoman sultan Suleyman the Magnificent sent an envoy to the king of Hungary. The envoy was supposedly executed. Suleyman's anger prompted the war that led to the Ottoman invasion of Hungary.

Since Herodotus (& before the Egyptian-Hittite treaties) civilization meant sparing negociators; diplomaticide is banned by the Geneva convention; Sharia imposes safe passage, etc. I am breaking my rule of never commenting (first) on someone I met socially but I noticed that @mdubowitz was a complete retard, & made a note there & then to investigate the intelligence of propagandists (& financial conditions).

“Fourth, carry out a final barrage of leadership strikes, eliminating the Iranian officials who had been spared for the purpose of negotiations. Iran’s leaders must be made to understand that their lives literally depend on reaching a negotiated settlement to Trump’s liking. If they refuse to do so, they will be killed.”washingtonpost.com/opinions/2026/…

The #StraitOfHormuz is one of the world's most strategic waterways, but where did its name come from? Is it Persian, Zoroastrian,or something else entirely? Here's the layered history behind the name that has echoed across trade routes for centuries. indiatoday.in/education-toda… #Iran

I sort of miss the 1990s and early 2000s when people could go ballistic in public, especially when driving, and those raw, messy human moments would just fade in the moment. No camera phones and viral clips. Not everything was documented and judged by the world on social media.

@GiorgioCafiero Authentic Memory vs. Digital Records.. In Greek religion, Mnemosyne (Memory) is the mother of the Muses. Indigenous traditions often see memory as something woven into the land & the body itself -- "internet" or "smartphone" cannot act as an external replacement for this "Mother"

Netanyahu appeared ready to sabotage the 🇺🇸🇮🇷 ceasefire, ordering strikes in Lebanon that killed hundreds even after Hezbollah paused its fire. This is not strategy but self-preservation: perpetual war from a leader who cannot survive without emergency. 👇 haaretz.com/israel-news/is…

Absurd and inhuman violence is spreading ferociously through the sacred places of the Christian East, profaned by the blasphemy of war and the brutality of business, with no regard for people’s lives, which are considered at most collateral damage of self-interest. But no gain can be worth the life of the weakest, children, or families. No cause can justify the shedding of innocent blood.

🚨🚨🚨#Trump’s admin. this week acknowledged it made a significant error in figures it used to help justify a #fraud probe into #NewYork’s #Medicaid program, a glaring mistake that undercuts a fed campaign to tackle waste, mostly in Democratic-led states. apnews.com/article/new-yo…
