Israel brands Palestinian detainees with numbers on their foreheads
Troops humiliate Palestinians swept up in West Bank raid by referring to them only by their numbers instead of by name
When Israel re-arrested Palestinian men in the occupied West Bank town of Dura, the detainees faced familiar treatment.
They were blindfolded, handcuffed, insulted and kept in inhumane conditions. More unusual was that each man had a number written on his forehead.
Osama Shaheen, who was released in August after 10 months of administrative detention, told Middle East Eye that soldiers brutally stormed his house, smashing his furniture.
"The soldiers turned us from names into numbers, and every detainee had a number that they used to provoke him during his arrest and call him by number instead of name. To them, we are just numbers."

You would think Israel, of all countries, ought to know how blatantly evil this kind of stuff looks.
They do, they just don't care.
They do, and that’s the point.
Israel of all countries is the one desperately trying to prove it's more like Nazis (strong white Europeans in their opinion) than like their victims. That's the lesson they got from it all.
They are a broken nation.
And I understand how they become one, what I don't understand is how Armenians haven't (having plenty of their own weaknesses, of course).
what I don't understand is how Armenians haven't
Because they don't have a regime supporting them them in that?
Have you not seen anything they've done previous to this? It's all completely conscious, they absolutely mean to treat Palestinians like the Nazis did Jews etc.
I have, that's why I said this kind of stuff to instead of this in particular, I was referring to all of it pretty much
They don’t care. No one is preventing them from becoming Nazis themselves.
