Military brutality

Military cruelty
Peace-keeping brutality

Incidence

On a regular basis, Palestinians are being shot in cold blood, randomly killed and maimed, detained without trial and beaten and humiliated by soldiers acting on orders from the Israeli government. A 1993 report estimates nearly 600 Somalis died at the hands of peace-keeping forces since the start of the UN's Operation Restore Hope.

Claim

Military brutality is a grave and urgent problem that cannot be ignored. It destroys lives, erodes trust in institutions, and perpetuates cycles of violence and fear. Such abuse of power undermines the very principles of justice and human rights that militaries are meant to protect. Addressing military brutality is essential for safeguarding human dignity, ensuring accountability, and building a more just and peaceful society. Silence and inaction are simply unacceptable.
