a video has emerged showing an injured Palestinian tied to the front of an Israeli military vehicle after a raid in Jenin. It appears he's being used as a human shield. In a statement to Al Jazeera, the Israeli army says the suspect was apprehended in violation of orders, and standard operating procedures.
Anthony Loewenstein, an independent journalist and author of "The Palestine Laboratory," spoke to Al Jazeera, emphasising the historical context of brutality and abuse of Palestinian civilians by the Israeli military. He noted that such actions have been ongoing for decades, inspired initially by British tactics in the 1920s and 30s. Loewenstein highlighted that the occupation dehumanises Palestinians, with recent figures showing over 550 Palestinians killed since the Gaza war began. He criticised the notion of Israel's "most moral army," pointing out the impunity and lack of accountability, and dismissed the feasibility of a two-state solution under the current circumstances.
