General Discussion

But I've never heard of this type of extreme, pervasive and state sanctioned sexually based violence here. Though I would condemn it no matter to whom, or where or why it was committed. The lack of decent food, medical care, poor sanitation and over crowding here is horrible enough, and it is common. There have been prison fight clubs and other sordid affairs. But I only know about any of this because they were reported on and investigated.

Whereas in the Israeli prisons, where they can be held without any charges, I've never heard of any legal penalties for the violence described in the article. Here it isn't legal to rape prisoners. It seems to be routine there. I do not believe any legal actions will happen for any of the victims in the article. And that's a major difference.

Alligator Auschwitz is what I call it, because people wiser than I pointed out the inmates at Alcatraz actually had trials. And because Auschwitz also started as a detainment camp.
