1. Strange, no wall-to-wall coverage of their plight or stories.

The feckless complicit Western media doesn't even cover it. Or bother to ask questions like how come 250 women and 50 children were among the 1,700 Palestinians from Gaza released recently - most without charges even. So why is the IDF kidnapping women and children from Gaza? And all these men? And why is that OK when even its own intelligence determined only about a quarter of the kidnapped and imprisoned are Hamas fighters? For what purpose besides collective punishment and sadistic enjoyment of their torment? These places are described as a network of torture camps, people come out broken. Horrific treatment, as described by human rights organizations and the UN.

Edited to add:
No one knows for certain how many have died in these hellholes. By Israel's admission, the figure is close to 100 - identified and unidentified. Tortured, starved and denied medical help but Israel won't allow anyone to investigate their deaths.
