4 Lies Anti-Israel Pundits Spread on Hostage Swap
Outrageous Lies About Israel’s Treatment of Prisoners
Terrorist sympathizers are spreading fake news about Israel’s prisoner swap with Hamas. Here are four of the most outrageous lies circulating on social media.
1. Israel Is ‘Only Country That Keeps Children As Prisoners’
American supermodel Gigi Hadid shared a post claiming Israel keeps children as prisoners of war. However, the post was deleted because it was based on false information. The truth is that Palestinian terrorist Ahmed Mansara was convicted of attempted murder after a stabbing rampage in 2015.
According to the New York Post, Mansara received a reduced sentence of nine and a half years. He has been in and out of solitary confinement due to his violent behavior.
Roughly 30 children were taken hostage by Hamas, who slaughtered Israeli women and children in a massacre. These child hostages have been subjected to physical and emotional abuse, including solitary confinement.
2. Israel at Fault for Injuries Sustained by Suicide Bomb
False narratives claim that Israa Jaabis, who was released from Israeli custody, was disfigured due to Israeli brutality. However, Jaabis actually caused her own injuries in a suicide bomb attempt in 2015.
3. Hamas Held Hostages in ‘Reasonable Conditions’
Claims that hostages held by Hamas were in reasonable conditions are debunked by testimonies from released prisoners. Hostages were forced to use plastic chairs for beds and received irregular meals. Some were even hospitalized upon release.
4. Israeli Hostage Looks ‘Thankful’ For Captivity
Claims that a released Israeli hostage looked appreciative to her captors are unfounded. The hostage, Mia Regev, was shot by Palestinian terrorists before her abduction.
Does Israel deny access to family visits for Palestinian prisoners
Cial media:
1. False Claim: Israel releases convicted terrorists in exchange for one captured soldier.
Truth: Israel values the lives of its citizens and soldiers, and it will go to great lengths to bring them back home. However, prisoner exchanges are not as straightforward as this claim suggests. Israel often releases prisoners to secure the release of multiple citizens held captive, to gain vital intelligence, or as part of broader peace negotiations.
2. False Claim: Palestinian prisoners are mistreated and tortured in Israeli prisons.
Truth: Israel adheres to international standards of human rights and maintains a transparent and accountable legal system. Prisoners’ rights are protected, and they have access to medical care, education, and legal representation. Any allegations of mistreatment or torture are thoroughly investigated by Israeli authorities.
3. False Claim: Israel denies access to family visits to Palestinian prisoners.
Truth: Israeli prisons allow regular family visits. However, in certain cases, restrictions are imposed for security reasons. These restrictions are necessary to prevent organized efforts to coordinate attacks or escape attempts.
4. False Claim: Israel uses administrative detention to imprison Palestinians indefinitely without trial.
Truth: Administrative detention is an exceptional measure used by Israel to prevent security threats when there is insufficient evidence to prosecute in open court. It is subject to strict legal review by Israeli courts and international bodies. Any detention is regularly reviewed, and the detained person has the right to appeal.
It is essential to verify the information before believing and spreading allegations about Israel’s treatment of prisoners. While there is always room for improvement in any justice system, Israel remains committed to upholding the rule of law and ensuring the rights of both its citizens and prisoners.
