Maan News Agency: "Hamas' Al-Qassam Brigades said they captured an Israeli solider, who was taken to a safe location which was then bombed by the Israeli military.

Militants took the captured soldier to a home in Gaza, which was tracked by the Israeli army and targeted by Israeli warplanes only hours after the Israeli soldier was taken to the building, Brigades members clamied.

The Israeli military has made no comment on the report.

The soldier was killed instantly, the statement said, and presumed that Israeli military commanders would prefer to have their soldiers killed than have to negotiate their release or admit their failure at the hands of the Palestinian brigades.

Addressing the Israeli army the Brigades statement said:

'You will see the Qassam fighters in every road and in all the streets and alleys to catch your souls and detain you. See how your lives are cheap for your leaders; they prefer to kill you than try to rescue you - just like Gilad who is still with us and they will do nothing to save him.”

The Al-Qassam Brigades finished their statement promising to make all possible efforts to kidnap Israeli soldiers and guarantee the release of Palestinians from Israeli prisons."

Iraqi civilians were routinely hooded in up to three sandbags - and even old plastic cement bags. When Baha Mousa died in September 2003, partly as a result of abuse while hooded, common sense dictates that at least at that point those in positions of responsibility within the civil service and military would have acted to change the poli...
