#Israel has enacted laws that give the appearance of a legal framework for arrests, but in reality allow total arbitrariness. For example, the "Incarceration of Unlawful Combatants Law" allows the military to imprison Palestinians it deems dangerous for as long as "hostile acts against the State of Israel persist." #OHCHR correctly notes that in the context of decades of occupation and armed #resistance, this amounts to a free pass for the #military.
