The Palestinian Prisoner's Society (PPS) reported that since October 7, Israeli authorities have detained 640 Palestinian children from the occupied West Bank.
Currently, about 250 children remain in Israeli prisons, where they reportedly face abuse and torture.
On the first day of the Eid al-Adha holiday, PPS reported that Israeli authorities detained a seven-year-old child, Baha Kazem Haj Mohammed, from the town of al-Mughayyir, east of Ramallah.
According to his family, Baha was detained while at the town centre with other children and youths.
PPS stated that he was beaten on his hands during detention and then released far from his home.
Israel is the only country that systematically prosecutes minors in military courts, which often accept confessions obtained by coercion.
An estimated 500-700 children, some as young as 12, are tried in military courts every year, the most common charge being stone-throwing, which carries a 20-year prison sentence.
Defence for Children International-Palestine (DCIP) also documented the widespread "routine" detainment of child detainees in solitary confinement.
In 1991, Israel ratified the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) which states that children should only be detained as a last resort.
But a series of policy changes have created loopholes allowing the Israeli authorities to convict children.
I want bible in a comedy asap
Let me see the wound.
4 MINUTES (2024) - Episode 2
. I know he wanted his friends character to be at the bottom of the list of things he had done. But for me friends and Chandler bing was a source of comfort when I was struggling with myself in my teens. They helped me a lot , it wasn't just a silly show to me. Thank you for everything, R.I.P.
Thank you, Matthew Perry (August 19, 1969 - October 28, 2023)
That was an amazing first episode , watched it more then 3 times now ( for analysis of course ). The colours, the sex and the ass wow.
Now for the point of this post , the time travel. I have so many questions. I know it's only the first episode and as expected the time travel hijink is a mystery.
Great is not just seeing the images or flashes of the future, he's experiencing it. He's scared after the accident and abandon the women. Then we see it was just a vision. But it's not shot in a way that we feel like he's having a vision , it's shot in a way which makes it seem like he's given a second choice. Like the universe is telling him you are going to make a bad choice asshole, don't do it and go make a better one.
It happened the next time too with tyme. He just runs away after bumping into tyme(lol) , after hearing the women's monologue about the son his age" (chekov's gun ). Then after he gets the vision ( foresight or a warning ), he changes his choice to see the women , sees tyme and gets another vision of them having sex. Of course he gets interested. It's so funny. " Hey I am having these traumatic visions I don't understand but one of them shows me having back breaking sex with a hot doctor so I am going to find out what it's about. "
And tyme's response to both is interesting. In the future vision he's like who's this asshole. Afterwards he's like who is this gorgeous angel that bumped into him.
We know dude , Bible has that effect.
Another interesting point , great makes morally right decision after the visions. Like I said above, it's like he's given a second choice. Expect in the beginning of the ep we saw tyme with a wound ( lmao that name ) and who I assume is great having an cardiac arrest. Somehow his second chances are going to run out.
It could be that the editing and the way the time vision is shown is just creative liberty and I am thinking too much. But it doesn't change the fact that great is making morally right and different choices which is having a positive result in his life. Now will it remain positive is the question ?
God this series is a mindfuck and I am loving it.
At this point anything else other than death is a happy ending for him
I don't think Only Friends will have a sad ending, not for Ray and Sand, at least.
I think it won't be like that because Ray's life is already so damn tragic and sad and I can't imagine ANY kind of sad ending that, at the same time, could leave the audience satisfied, if Ray's fate were to suffer more, even worse if it were to be a type of suffering that would see him completely alone, with no one in his life. And I don't even want to dare think about his possible death.
"Only Friends" is a very, very intense and in some ways, dark BL but based on the experience I've had watching other BLs, I have that tiny hope that at least Ray will find his happiness.
And perhaps this will apply to all the boys. Why not? Life is hard enough, at least in dramas we deserve a happy ending.
Sand and his generosity.
Sand is a great character and I find it interesting that even though he did a crime, is actively doing another crime the majority of the fandom is behind him being such a good guy, and he is. But it got me thinking. Why is he so generous towards ray?
Now 14 yr old me would have instantly said true love but now I know a lot more. Something about his care for ray feel so familiar. Like he knows exactly what to do with someone like ray, on the verge of an alcoholic spiral 24/7.
The first few episodes we see them connecting but even if they did connect more then the other couples, there was something huge missing. Sand didn't know the extend of rays addiction. And then we see sand processing it and then top comes barging in and derails him and the entire trainwreck that resulted and sand had understood just how gone ray is. That boy needs rehab asap.
But sand goes after him, he saves him, he takes care of him, he bends to his every whim and is happy to do so, only to be tossed aside. And it's in the way he takes care of him. He knows how to take care of a drunk person , he knows how to be gentle with them , he knows how to scold them without coming across as demeaning or prejudice. He has the patience of someone who's already dealt with circumstances like these. Of taking care of a loved one who is an addict.
You can see it in the way he doesn't bring up the outburst. He bought up the drunk driving because it has the potential to cause lasting harm. But an outburst in a bar will be just that an outburst. Sand doesn't know that ray had told mew about topton, but he doesn't give the outburst much thought when ray had attacked him directly. And that's where I think he knows what to except from an outburst from an addict and is choosing to not take it personally. And that level of insight is not typical in a 20 something college kid , even if the college kid works in a bar , because ray targeted him specially. Nobody would have blamed him if he didn't go, heck rays friends who he have known for years didn't go but sand a recent acquaintance went.
Now it can be said that sand has seen the good side of ray, and he has. When it comes with dealing with addicts most people focus on changing the bad side and forget about the good side. But sand didn't , he saw the good side, liked it and is trying to get that back. That smile in the bathtub, he thought he was getting it back. But then he saw raymew dancing and that look is so interesting. Because there's no anger, there's sadness, and heartbreak and disappointed. And there's resignation. He predicted it would happen and it did.
He wasn't disappointed with ray, he was disappointed in himself. He was dealing with an addict, trying to save him when the person doesn't want to be saved. Something he has done before. Something he so familiar with he was anticipating the heartbreak when he and ray had hooked up. It's exactly like playing with fire.
So why did he jump right in when he knows the pain, because it's familiar to him.
So who's this person who has given sand the experience with working with addicts . Either his mom who's the closest person we have seen to him or his ex.
Imagine if it was his ex , someone he loved , cared for and has helped with a recovery process but then top comes and takes him away. By using drugs.
Which would explain why sand is so mad at him , why he insisted that top stole him.
Sand saw the good side with his ex , helped him get back and all that was tossed away for the next fix that top had with him. And he fought tooth and nails for him , but the ex chose his next fix and not him.
Then his eyes fell on a boy similar to his ex , who's also going through addiction and sand wants to help him since it's so familiar. And he knows it's a bad idea and he is watching the exact same thing happen away and this time he's so resigned and too tired too fight.
His generosity is not just because he's a good person , it's because he's used to it, it's because it's familiar to him.
Always be happy little onion
GMMTV really handed me two attractive women who could have me killed and expected me to root for the men?!
I'll kill those men myself, so I can get all the attention for these ladies!
ray every ep: invites people over to have a threesome with him and sand
ray when boeing actually comes: get rid of him or ill kill him myself
This poor dude. I feel so sorry for him. Man didn't deserve to be left in the dust.
i think we should all start using arabic words and phrases more often because its a beautiful language and also theres not really. english equivalents that have the same vibes
theres also the comedy potential of it. you guys dont know the joy of having your muslim friend text you "hopefully the racists in our city will all get sick and cant go to the protest" and you, as a pasty white guy, responding with "inshallah they get covid"
its a one hit KO every time. its fucking hilarious. theres no english word that has the same effect.
he also once texted me that he got over a mysterious illness he came down with (i think? i cant remember the exact context) and i responded with "subhanallah he is cured"
again, one hit KO. he lost his shit.
what im saying is we gotta normalise arabic. its just a language like any other, and it has some great words. its just like saying "thank god" or whatever, but theres so much variety and nuance. its beautiful
She/Her, Slytherin, can't focus on one thing, loves morally gray characters, likes bl way too much, all signs lead to it
