An Israeli Instagram page has sparked anger on social media after it shared an image of a soldier using a detained, blindfolded Palestinian father to advertise its jewellery business.

The Instagram page, named ‘Shilo_Jewelry’, published on Friday the image of a Palestinian man, with his hands tied and crouched down on a sofa. In his hands is a piece of paper on which the soldier appears to have written the business’s social media handle.

Israel is an IRL Standford prison experiment.

Pretty similar, yes. Especially since the main issue with the Experiment was the leadership.

I'm sorry, but in what way is that even a good advertisement?

I mean it's horrible, we don't need to talk about the obvious, but normally I can at least see a personal advantage somebody gained from the crime. But here? This is bullshit, even to another genocidal Zionist.

Its a good advertisement for Israelis. It makes the owner relatable to other Israelis that are just as morally decrepit.
