United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki Moon has called on Israel to either file criminal charges against Arab administrative detainees or release them. The UN leader was referring to terrorists imprisoned in Israel under administrative orders, many now hunger striking to gain support for their plight.
In a message released by the UN leader’s office, it sharply condemns Israel’s continued use of administrative orders in its war against terrorism. The UN reports that dozens of Arab administrative prisoners are currently staging a hunger strike.

But throwing people in jail without charges or trial is an ancient and venerated tradition in that part of the world (when the Brits ruled part of it, they made it clear that aspects of English law such as Habeas Corpus and Juries and Due process of law were NOT for export to the Empire). What does Mr. Moon think the Israelis are? Civilized????
Will the same be asked of AyRab countries? Or will Ban Ki give them a pass?
Akuperma, do you run your anti-Israel gimmick 24/7. It’s amazing you get anything done during the day, you spend it trolling the site as a professional commenter.

Which is seen from his attempt at quoting halacha, his bitachon in American politics and twisted view point of the world
