I can't read anything but the headlines, it could be true, and it could be an "exaggeration" bez'elem style, assuming it is true, I can give records of incidents I witnessed myself of the army arresting ppl that thretened the rights of the Palestinians, there are exeptions and there are sadistic soldiers but not enough to say the army is racist as a rule.
There's an embedded video clearly showing IDF standing among squatters while they throw rocks at Palestinians. Again; and from the conservative Jerusalem Post this time: http://www.jpost.com/National-News/...-settlers-throw-stones-at-Palestinians-337476 This is just one example; I have several more. I wonder how many were not caught on video and dismissed as hearsay or lies...
OK. Can you provide official declaration which blames the settlers in this specific event? Maybe I missed something but nothing was said about possible trial.
55 years of occupation, millions of Israeli soldiers on rotation in the WB - will prodice several such examples and to yours I can provide one or two of mine, still, as a rule the IDF is NOT a racist org. there are racist men there as in any other giant organization but its laws are clear and those that break the law will face charges and discharge from service/prison time, there are Druze and Beduween serving in the WB, many Druze serve in "Magav" - border police - the army unit that sits in the WB, for their Arab lang. and they volenteer to it. - - - Updated - - - Just what the media told this far, they are still under interigation.
The IDF should have been protecting the Palestinians against those Jewish terrorist, and shot them dead before they get to kill anybody. But the IDF is too racist to protect Palestinians against Jews.
What incident are you talking about? when did settlers raid Palestinians and killed them in front of IDF ? when did they raid and killed at all ?
The IDF weren't there to protect the Palestinians, but they should have been there. That's the whole thing. They are too racist to protect the lifes against Jewish terrorists. (And they are obligated to do so according to international law. And no, I'm not willing to educate you.)
No, the absence of the IDF when Jewish terrorist attack Palestinians shows the IDF is too racist to protect Palestinians.
Well its a good thing no one was killed or else this would have started something bigger. As for the IDF defending Palestinians, come on dude they cant be everywhere all the time.
No, but I expect the IDF to perform their duty and, as precribed in the Geneva Conventions, protect the civilians in the territory occupied by Israel. Instead they stand by and watch as Palestinians are attacked and are thus, technically, colluding with their lawbreaking activities and giving them tacit support.
Clang...CLANG... Israel is not occupying anyone else's territory... Please refer to the Ukraine vs Poland it would signify exactly what you are describing.
Unfortunately for Israel the United Nations and global opinion view matters slightly differently, and according to international law which Israel clearly regards as irrelevant-until, of course, you go whining to the UN over some perceived Palestinian transgression. You can continue with your blinkered, ostrich-like fantasy as long as you like; it won't change the truth. Israel is in contravention of the law and does so routinely. I'll continue to remind you of this because it annoys you.
Who gives a rat's tail for what you expect... The IDF belongs to us and Poles in England can watch with amazement.
The world expects Israel and its armed forces to behave according to the law. Whether you, personally, give a rat's is immaterial, frankly. You are not important.
