left arm and handcuffed me to his right arm.
*   
*   Another man --- he also showed a gun --- came over and grabbed me
*   roughly by the right arm. They took me out to a dark burgundy car,
*   cuffed my hands in front of me and shoved me into the back seat.
*   
*   We drove for some time when they made me face backwards. In a
*   residential area we drove into a garage and I was taken into the
*   house, into a big bare room with a cement floor. There was a big
*   metal desk.
*   
*   The room also had a metal pole set in the cement floor. It had a
*   hook at the top, sort of like a tether ball pole.
*   
*   I was thrown into a gray metal chair, still handcuffed. The room
*   was dimly lit, but with a bright fluorescent light coming at my
*   face. They threw a picture down on the desk. It was a picture of
*   me, my husband and a Palistinian friend of ours whom they had
*   arrested. They slapped it and said 'Who is this man, identify
*   him.' I refused and said what they were doing to me was illegal.
*   
*   One said, 'Honey, we ARE the law.'
*   
*   It was after midnight by now. They uncuffed my right hand, then
*   cuffed my left hand to the metal pole. My left arm was stretched
*   up to reach it.
*   
*   Then they left the house and left me hanging
*   there like that for over three hours.
*   
*   They came back around 3:30 AM with a third man.
*   
*   I asked if I could use the bathroom.
*   
*   I was desperate to go.
*   
*   They would not let me.
*   
*   They told me that my husband was in custody, that they had just picked
*   him up. [That was false.] They said we could work out a deal, I could
*   be a witness for the prosecution of our friend.
*   
*   If I would do that, they would let my husband go.
*   
*   They also said they knew I only had $78 in my bank account, hinting
*   that they could change that.
