Minister of Prisoners Affairs in Palestine Mohammed Faraj al-Ghoul directed an urgent appeal to Arab countries to save Palestinian women from Israeli terrorism, saying: “Where is the Arab pride that should be moved over what happens to Palestinian women.”
Media broadcasted a few days back an Israeli soldier dancing to music around a cuffed and blindfolded Palestinian woman forced to face a wall. Ghoul said in a speech he gave at a sit-in tent at the ministry headquarters Thursday morning attended by hundreds of ministers, PLC member, prisoners’ families, trade union leaders, and organizations: “This dreaded soldier deserves to brag and dance and do anything as long as there is no one to tell him: enough, and as long as jealousy and Arabism does not stir in the blood of the Arabs and the Muslims.” Ghoul said the clip was only a fraction of Israel’s assaults against male and female prisoners.He added that he was astonished over comments made over the video by Israeli authorities, who described the victim Ihsan Dababisa as a terrorist. “Who is the terrorist? The one ho stands alone an, bound, blindfolded, his face against the wall, or the one happily dances and sings at the abduction of a weak woman?” he said.
