mr pollock's sentencing is the latest attack on this in which israel is targeting its own citizens and i think it's quite a commentary on israeli society that the only israeli that has been jailed in relation to the gaza war is one that decided to nonviolently ride his bike through the streets of tel aviv so compare this israeli prosecution on peace for israel he said is said to the treatment of palestinians. while the treatment of palestinians is significantly worse mr pollack addressed this in his sentencing argument in which he said that because he's an israeli jew he's going to jail only for three months while nonviolent palestinian leaders such as go to jail for years and there are sometimes placed in administrative detention without being charged with a single crime and so we see that the quality of israeli democracy now for its own citizens is is any serious decline and one might say in a crisis and this is just a logical extension to the type of. violence and repression that we see against nonviolent activists in the palestinian territories the blockade of gaza has been condemn
