the UN's high commissioner on human rights has expressed grave concern over treatment of palestinian women and girls held captive by israeli forces in both gaza and the west bank
their sources (named at the bottom of the link) report abuses such as
- execution of whole families including children
- rape and sexual assault
- torture
- abduction
surely these allegations require an independent and thorough investigation? why have these allegations gone unreported?

The experts are part of what is known as the Special Procedures of the Human Rights Council. Special Procedures, the largest body of independent experts in the UN human rights system, is the general name of the Council’s independent fact-finding and monitoring mechanisms. Special Procedures mandate-holders are independent human rights experts appointed by the Human Rights Council to address either specific country situations or thematic issues in all parts of the world. Special Procedures experts work on a voluntary basis; they are not UN staff and do not receive a salary for their work. They are independent of any government or organisation and serve in their individual capacity.
Please post my reply then. It will give you something to do today. I don't support violence of any kind by anybody. What I don't support is the Israel government and their unlawful actions. I said that 7th October was predictable, I also said I had a moslem boyfriend at one time and had lived in an area where there were plenty of moslems. To lump all moslems under one umbrella is shameful.
What is happening now is shameful. I'm ashamed of the support we are giving Israel to commit genocide.
