I bet if their name was "John Smith" or "Hannah Davis" they'd be dropping everything to get this teen released, right?

Israeli authorities raided Karakrah’s home in the West Bank...Soldiers allegedly threatened his mother and sisters...

“When I showed them his U.S. passport and birth certificate, they threw it in my face....When the soldiers took Karakrah away, they blew kisses at his mother"

"Now, Zeteo can reveal another reason for outrage: Netanyahu was welcomed to the U.S. while holding another American teenager in prison, because of “secret evidence.”

[some-subscribed-rss] New Post: Israel Has Kidnapped Another American Teenager, by Prem Thakker https://zeteo.com/p/israel-has-kidnapped-another-american

Teaser:

Israeli forces snatched an American teenager with Texas roots from his West Bank home in the dead of night, just days before his 18th birthday. Abdalkareem Issa Ahmed Safi now languishes in Ofer prison—held without charge or trial under “administrative detention,” based on evidence his own lawyer can’t see. He’s the cousin of another young U.S. citizen already rotting in an Israeli jail. All while Benjamin Netanyahu jets to the U.S. for the ninth time since Trump took office, welcomed as though nothing is amiss. Zeteo reports on one more victim of cruel impunity—and a troubling sign for Trump as even his most ardent fans begin to waver.
