⚡️🇮🇱 ALERT - Ben Gvir boasts that Palestinian prisoners “piss themselves” in fear when he visits Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, who oversees the country’s prison and torture system for Palestinians, said Palestinian prisoners urinate on themselves out of fear when he enters Israeli jails, and claimed he found imprisoned Palestinian leader Marwan Barghouti crying in terror. “When we enter Israel’s prisons, the Palestinian prisoners piss their pants when they see us, they piss themselves out of fear,” Ben Gvir said. “We enter Marwan Barghouti’s cell and he was crying in terror. I told the jailers to keep treating them like that.” The remarks follow a pattern for the Otzma Yehudit (Jewish Power party) leader, who has repeatedly publicized his visits and mistreatment of Palestinian detainees and the worsening of their conditions since taking the prisons portfolio. In August, he filmed himself confronting Barghouti in his cell, footage the UN human rights office called an attack on Barghouti’s dignity that could encourage further violence against Palestinian prisoners. Barghouti, 66, has been held since 2002 and is the most popular Palestinian political figure in opinion polls.
