Israel Mocks Flotilla Activists Online as Torture Allegations Mount The Israeli Foreign Ministry has posted online images and videos mocking activists from the Global Sumud Flotilla, accusing them of staging their injuries for the cameras.
This move is a disturbing example of how governments will go to great lengths to deflect blame for human rights abuses.
Allegations of torture, rape, and sexual violence against Israeli forces continue to mount, prompting Israel's desperate attempt to shift focus from its own actions to the perceived hypocrisy of others.
