    “The IDF has investigated ourselves, and we have found we have done nothing wrong.”

    You have everyday Israelis posting racist tiktoks making fun of Palestinian deaths, it was a given that if you take those same civilians and give them guns the abusive behavior would just get worse.

      “The IDF has investigated ourselves, and we have found we have done nothing wrong.”

      From the article…

      In response to the evidence, the IDF said that “the [soldiers’] conduct that emerges from these scenes is grave and inconsistent with the values of the IDF. The incidents are under investigation. The IDF commanders will hold talks with all the soldiers on the front. One soldier has been dismissed from reserve service.”

      Not saying that the IDF is right on this one, at all, but all armies have aholes in them who do crap like this.

        So they quick way out of reserve service is to just film yourself committing war crimes? That seems like a reward not a punishment. They should be in prison, not at home

          I wasn’t speaking towards that.

          I was calling someone out for falsely quoting something that wasn’t said.
