I wonder how American Jews would react if the U.S.A did this?

I guess it's Kosher when Jews do it.

    The first seven Eritrean asylum seekers who refused deportation to Rwanda were brought to Saharonim Prison on Wednesday, after the Interior Ministry gave them a choice between indefinite detention and deportation.

    In response, 750 asylum seekers detained at the adjacent Holot Open Detention Center in the Negev began a hunger strike, refusing both food and water, said Abdat Ishmail, a de facto spokesman for the Eritrean asylum seekers in Holot. There are about 1,000 asylum seekers currently in Holot, most of them Eritrean.
