This situation is stupid and who cares.
A military court convicted an Israeli soldier of manslaughter on Wednesday for shooting a Palestinian assailant in the head as he lay wounded on the ground, a case that has polarized Israelis and rocked the pedestal on which the military normally stands.
Hours later, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu joined a growing number of voices in Israel calling for the soldier to be pardoned, a move that would satisfy many Israelis but enrage Palestinians.
With the 50th anniversary of Israel’s occupation of the West Bank approaching, the highly charged trial fueled a debate about military ethics and the place of the army in Israeli society. It became as much about the military’s value system as about the conduct of the soldier, Sgt. Elor Azaria.
The military’s rules make clear that assailants must be quickly incapacitated, but that once neutralized, they should not be killed. Even so, critics and rights groups have accused Israeli soldiers and police officers of being quick to pull the trigger, particularly in response to a recent spate of deadly stabbings, shootings and car attacks by Palestinians.
Many in Israel, a country where military service is a part of national identity, called for backing up young soldiers sent on dangerous missions. They said that Sergeant Azaria had been in an impossible situation and that the deck had been stacked against him, since an acquittal would have put his commanders in a bad light.
“This is a difficult and painful day for us all,” Mr. Netanyahu said in a Facebook post. “The soldiers of the I.D.F. are our sons and daughters, and they need to remain above any dispute.”
For the record, he obviously murdered the guy.
Watch the video.
A bunch of people are standing around and he just shoots him in the head and then continues standing around.
One can say that’s funny or cruel or sad or whatever. It doesn’t matter.
You’re supposed to murder your enemies in a war. That’s what war is about.
Charging a soldier with a crime for murdering his enemy is like charging a fireman with a crime for helping a cat out of a tree.
I have said this from the beginning.
Remember when they charged those American soldiers for raping that girl and murdering her family? They sentenced at least one of them to death.
How does that make any sense? The entire purpose of wars is to destroy your enemies. If people don’t want that to happen, then they shouldn’t have wars. Soldiers don’t declare war on anyone, so charging them for fighting the war is nonsensical.
“Human rights-based war” is a silly, stupid concept.
Anyway though, the point is, who care?
If this makes Israel look bad in the eyes of liberals, it’s good.
