"While organizations that focus on Israel-Palestine have long been aware that Israeli border officials regularly strip search men and women, If Americans Knew appears to be the first organization that has specifically investigated the policy of strip searching women. In the course of its investigation, If Americans Knew was astonished to learn that Israeli officials have also been strip searching young girls - as young as seven and below.

According to interviews with women in the United States, Israel, the West Bank and Gaza, Israeli border officials periodically force Christian and Muslim females of all ages to remove their clothing and submit to searches. In some cases the children are then "felt" by Israeli officials.

Sometimes mothers and children are strip-searched together, at other times little girls are taken from their parents and strip-searched alone. Women are required to remove sanitary napkins, sometimes with small daughters at their side. Sometimes women are strip searched in the presence of their young sons."

There was a song called "I always Close my eyes to look into the Sun" written about the US involvement in South American insurgencies and revolutions.

People know what is going on but they choose not to see. It becomes a your side verses my side question to determine morality. If something is done, no matter how terrible, for our side it is deemed morally pure.

That is why you get brain dead Bloggers defending the redneck ideal.
