Israel's new Gulag

Ynet reported Israel is building a new prison, where detained members of the Lebanese resistance group Hizbollah are to be held. You can find the report here.
Nazareth-based British journalist Jonathan Cook had written three years ago a good story on an Israeli secret prison, Facility 1391, where Lebanese and Arab prisoners were reportedly incarcerated and tortured. Newsweek also ran a feature on that facility.
Israel's interrogation tactics were largely copied by the US forces in Iraq.

This once again shows the brutality and uncivilised behaviour of israilis. they are the biggest threat to world peace alongwith their Godfather, Mr. Bush and his gang.
