Evil on open display – God bless all prisoners – Peter
Tel Aviv: Israel’s far-right national security minister has posted a video on social media that shows him admonishing an imprisoned Palestinian leader in a face-to-face meeting inside a prison, saying Israel will confront anyone who acts against the country and “wipe them out”.
The video surfaced as news broke of a reported Israeli plan to resettle Palestinians from war-torn Gaza in the troubled African nation of South Sudan. Three sources told Reuters that South Sudan and Israel were discussing such a move, which Palestinian leaders quickly dismissed as unacceptable.
Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir posted the video of his interaction with Palestinian leader Marwan Barghouti on X on Friday night (Saturday AEST) but it is unclear when it was filmed. Ben-Gvir is known for staging provocative encounters with Palestinians.
Barghouti is serving five life sentences after being convicted of involvement in attacks at the height of the Palestinian uprising, or intifada, in the early 2000s. He was arrested more than two decades ago, and polls consistently show he is the most popular Palestinian leader – some Palestinians even see him as their Nelson Mandela.
