Desert Peace
The Israeli government clarified the entire situation regarding his ‘beatings and torture’ in a Reuters report just issued… THEY DENIED EVERYTHING!
Israel would NEVER lie…. I can’t understand why Reuters would even give coverage to such blatant lies… especially considering that Israel has still not given them details of the MURDER of their own reporter Fadel Shana two months ago.
(May the lying bastards rot in hell!!! That’s all I have to say about Israel’s statement)
It’s not too late to demand a full investigation of the incident….
The zionists will stop at no length to silence the voice of the voiceless. The truth is the biggest enemy of theirs. Murder, beatings, incarcerations, there is no end to their attempts. But the truth will get out and you can help that happen… You can contact the Israeli government offices in your areas and demand an investigation of these incidents… all contact info can be found HERE.
You can also contact the Israeli Foreign Ministry and DEMAND an investigation.

Israel denies mistreating Gaza reporter
Tue Jul 01 08:46:47 UTC 2008
JERUSALEM, July 1 (Reuters) - Israel denied on Tuesday allegations by a Palestinian journalist that he was abused and injured by Israeli security personnel while on his way home to the Gaza Strip after receiving a journalism award in Britain.
Mohammed Omer said from his hospital bed on Monday that he was detained for nearly four hours at the Israeli-controlled Allenby Bridge when he crossed from Jordan into the occupied West Bank, en route to the Gaza Strip, on June 26.
Omer said he was forced to strip to his underwear by an Israeli officer who then “snatched it down off me”. He said two officers dragged him by his legs, his head sweeping the floor, in front of other passengers, and that he vomited and fainted.
An Israeli security official said a body search and an examination of Omer’s belongings were carried out “because of the suspicion that he had been in contact with hostile elements and had been asked by them to smuggle something in”.
The official said Omer received “fair treatment and no irregular action was taken towards him” during the search.
“At the end of the search, he lost his balance and fell, for some reason unknown to us. A team of medics, an ambulance and a paramedic were summoned and he was transferred for treatment to Jericho,” the official said.
Omer, 24, received the Martha Gellhorn Prize for Journalism, awarded to journalists who expose “establishment propaganda”, according to its Web site, at a ceremony in London on June 16.
While in hospital in Jericho, in the West Bank, he contacted Dutch diplomats who had facilitated his trip to Europe, and they drove him to an Israeli border crossing with the Gaza Strip.
Back in the Hamas-controlled territory, he was admitted to hospital where doctors said he had suffered a nervous breakdown and that several of his ribs had been broken. (Writing by Jeffrey Heller, Additional reporting by Nidal al-Mughrabi in Gaza, Editing by Richard Balmforth)
