You can see those photographs, those videos. What‘s the first thing you do when you take a prisoner in Gaza? First thing you do is you tell them, take your shirt off we want to see that there‘s no suicide vest.

“Thousands and thousands of prisoners have taken their shirt off. And you don‘t see one, not one emaciated, not a single case from the beginning of the war till the present. In fact you see the opposite, you don‘t get enough exercise,” he further added.
