Israel soldiers speak out on Gaza
The true story is slowly seeping out about the actions of the Israeli army’s actions in Gaza. Slowly but surely all those “allegations” are proving to be true whether it be the use of phosphorus bombs near civilians or the disproportionate use of force.
The latest reports are actually being given by actual soldiers involved in the invasion. The story tells of how the soldiers worked under so called permissive rules of engagement. To me the biggest revelation is that the wholesale destruction of the area’s infrastructure was Israeli policy.
Israel, as usual, has played this brilliantly; banning all independent reporting of the action while it was happening so allowing them to label any reporting as “propaganda” while anything that was reported by the UN or other independent bodies, was kicked in to the long grass by the simple method of stating that an “investigation” was under way.
The report can’t easily be trashed by the Israelis but of course they will try “hearsay”, “no evidence” being the first two excuses. One quote from the report is illuminating to say the least. The soldier is responding to the question as to whether some of the early reports of Israeli tactics were true…….
So you say that, from your own experience, there’s truth in these publications.
Yes. It was ludicrous to read it and then hear the response of the army spokesperson
that the matter was investigated and there are no testimonies on the ground and that
the Israeli army is a moral army. It raises doubts about the army spokesperson’s
responses in general when you know for a fact that these things actually did take
place…
Funny how the fact that there was no evidence or that the evidence was “hearsay” has never stopped the Israelis assassinating people as particularly shown in the film Munich which is based on a number of books outlining the “Operation Wrath of God”.
