UNICEF says Nazi style Israel violates the rights of Palestinian children from the moment they are arrested and it goes on through out the conviction and sentencing process.
UNICEF's report had 38 specific recommendations for Israel to
improve the protection of children in line with international laws.
The
village of bet umar we're told has one of the highest rates of child
arrests. The story of Zein a Palestinian child who spent 11 months in
detention inside Israeli prisons seems to be a case in point for
UNICEF's report which says that Israel's ill treatment of Palestinian
children is widespread systematic and institutionalized. Zein was
arrested in the middle of the night, was beaten at the time of his
arrest and during the interrogation. He had no lawyer present and last
but not least he was tried by a military court in the Ofer military
prison. All in violation of the convention on the rights of the child
which Israel is a signatory on.
