2015-08-09 PALESTINE: Concern for the life of detainee Muhammad Allan, on the 51st day of his hunger striker
======================
Hunger strikes are the only protest left for Palestinian detainees, at times held for years for no trial. The Israeli gov response - a new law to permit forced feeding, GITMO style. The Israeli Medical Association consistently and strongly opposes such measures by the Israeli gov.
Dozens more expected to join strike on Sunday, in protest against treatment and conditions in Israeli prisoner.
