Israeli human rights group B’Tselem has issued a new statement criticizing the Israeli military for its treatment of unarmed protesters in the occupied West Bank, saying that they are violating their own rules of engagement in such situations.
“The Israeli military’s standing orders explicitly state that live ammunition may not be fired at stone-throwers,” the report noted, adding that Israeli troops have been repeatedly doing so, and have shot and killed at least 56 people in stone-throwing incidents despite the rule.
Israel’s “rules of engagement” have often been starkly different from their actual military behavior in the occupied territories. In addition to the West Bank stone throwers, Israeli troops have killed numerous Gazan farmers since the ceasefire despite changing their rules to tell soldiers to not fire unless the Gazan is physically attacking the border fence.
The Israeli military condemned B’Tselem for the report, insisting that many of the killings were “old or still under investigation” and that the report was biased against them.
What do you expect from an IDF whose members have been told from childhood that non-Jews are cattle, or donkeys and are not human. These troops make the Hitler Youth or the Einsatzgruppen look like Cub Scouts.
The world would be a better place without Israel (unless they change their ways regarding war).
What else to expect from truly satanic entity, from place build on terrorism, from inventor and sponsor of modern day terrorism?
This temporary "Province of Palestine" called Israel is nest of World criminals with long record of crimes against humanity.
The very day this regime cease to exist, that very day Mankind will be able to work on UNIVERSAL MORAL CODEX and Peace. No reasoning needed, pure evil – Visible satanic organization on planet Earth…..peter czech
Peter vojta could not have put it better. The only sad thing to this on-going ethnic cleansing and
genocide of the Palestinian people is that they have the backing of their larger and more Satanic
brother, the USA.
Interesting that 70 years ago, it was the Jews who were being murdered, killed and tortured. Not by Arabs, but by God Fearing European Christians.
And now, that they have amassed their own power, they are unleashing the same murder and torture upon another race. Not the race that had tortured and abused them for millennial, but a race whose only crime, was living on the wrong spot of earth.
