The Globe and Mail reports that contrary to human rights organizations’ claims, Palestinian kids look forward to life in Israeli prison and actively try to get arrested. Mohammad Kharaz, a 17-year-old from now in the Ofer prison told reporter Mark MacKinnon:
“Getting arrested was like a fashion trend. It was the thing to do.”
Teen prisoners there describe days of table tennis, digital TV, and quiet study time too. So much for stolen youth.
