American Dr Mark Perlmutter, who has volunteered in Gaza, says one of his Palestinian colleagues was taken by Israeli occupation forces, had his fingers shattered and was told to confess to being a member of Hamas or have his wife gang raped in front of him.
Soldiers ‘crushed’ his fingers, Perlmutter explains, adding that they also threatened to ‘send a drone to your bedroom window and incinerate your children.’ The doctor did not confess and spent 11 months being tortured in Israeli detention.

Torture isn’t useful as an intelligence-gathering tool, but that’s not what it’s being used for here. Torture works quite well for manufacturing confessions to use as propaganda to justify further killing/torture/other crimes.

This only applies in countries where the have a rule of law. Those countries usually don’t torture.
How is that definition useful? The USA and Israel both torture and have plenty of laws.
“rule of law”
They both ignore the law as they please. Be rich, white and you can do whatever you want.
