Netanyahu’s Shocking Statement On Gaza Detainees Sparks Outrage
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has ignited widespread condemnation after justifying the absence of famine in Gaza by referencing the mass arrest and humiliation of Palestinian civilians. In a chilling statement, Netanyahu said:
“There was no famine in Gaza because we arrested thousands of civilians to ensure they are not fighters and photographed them naked, and they showed no signs of hunger—in fact, they don’t even exercise.”
Dehumanizing Justification Raises Alarms
Netanyahu’s remarks quickly circulated on social media, drawing widespread criticism. Human rights organizations condemned the statement, calling it a clear admission of collective punishment and degrading treatment—both violations of international law.
Since October, Israeli forces have detained thousands of Palestinians from Gaza, often without charge or trial. Reports from B’Tselem and Amnesty International document severe abuse, deliberate starvation, and torture in these detention facilities. Netanyahu’s reference to photographing detainees naked further confirms the systemic humiliation Palestinians face in custody.
Critics say his statement shows a blatant disregard for Palestinian suffering and normalizes inhumane treatment. As Gaza’s humanitarian crisis deepens, Netanyahu’s words have intensified global demands for justice and accountability.
