Incarcerated Palestinian children weather abuses often worse than many adults in U.S. prison systems. In reports conducted  between 2012 and 2015, around 75 percent of children surveyed experienced violence after their arrest, and almost all were denied access to legal counsel and had no parents with them during their interrogation. With a conviction rate  of nearly 100 percent, Israel guarantees that any child’s rebuttal to the occupation will almost assuredly be met with detainment in a violent and unsafe environment. Fighting for Ahed Tamimi’s justice is a move for all of Palestine’s wrongfully incarcerated children.
