  WHILE ILLEGAL PHYSICAL TORTURE IS WIDELY
  USED BY GOVERNMENTS AND TERRORISTS
  LEGAL PHYSICAL TORTURE HAS LARGELY VANISHED
  EXCEPT PERHAPS IN ISRAEL WHERE IT IS
  ADVOCATED BY THE STATE
  A PARADOX CONSIDERING WHAT THE JEWISH PEOPLE
  EXPERIENCED DURING WORLD WAR II
  "LEGAL" "OFFICIAL" TORTURE WAS PRACTICED BY
  THE "MODERN" AND "DEMOCRATIC" STATE OF ISRAEL
  WHERE "MODEST PHYSICAL PRESSURE" TO EXTRACT
  INFORMATION FROM PRISONERS HELD WITHOUT CHARGES
  WAS A PREVALENT PRACTICE ACCORDING TO THE
  HEAD OF GENERAL SECURITY Ami AYALON [#]
  THE ISRAELI HUMAN RIGHTS "BTSELEM" GROUP
  HEADED BY Yuval GINBAR [#] CHARGED THAT
  85% OF PALESTINIANS HELD FOR INTERROGATION
  WERE SUBJECTED TO PRACTICES THAT FIT
  THE LEGAL DEFINITION OF TORTURE
  THE ISRAELI STATE ATTORNEY Shai NITZAN [#] ARGUED
  THAT THE USE OF "THE SHAKE" IS VITAL ...
  SUCH VIOLENT SHAKING OF SUSPECTS HAS CAUSED
  THE DEATH OF AT LEAST ONE PRISONER
  Abdel Zamed HASSAN HARIZAT [#]
  SUCH ACCUSATIONS LED THE HIGH COURT OF ISRAEL
  TO LOOK INTO THE MATTER BUT NOT WITHOUT
  ENTHUSIASM AS EXPRESSED BY THE CHIEF JUSTICE
  Aharon BARAK [#] WHO BECAME PRESIDENT COMPLAINED
  " ... WHY SHOULD THE SUPREME COURT PULL THE
  CHESTNUTS OUT OF THE FIRE ... "
  IN 1987 A COMMISSION HEADED BY CHIEF JUSTICE
  Moshe LANDAU [#] ADVISED THAT
  "MODERATE PHYSICAL PRESSURE" COULD BE USED
  the above is from a report by William DRAZDIAK [#]
  WASHINGTON POST FOREIGN SERVICE OF MAY 21 1998
  LEGAL TORTURE IN ISRAEL WAS "DISCONTINUED" BUT
  ELECTED IN 2001
  ARIEL SHARON ELECTED PRESIDENT IN 2001
  IS URGING THE ISRAELI PARLIAMENT TO APPROVE A LAW
  TO ALLOW SECURITY SERVICE TO TORTURE ARAB DETAINEES
  "... PHYSICAL PRESSURE SAVES TIME ..."
