West Bank: Brutality of Israeli Soldiers

Thank you Merlot ,

Seems soldiers are brutalised to brutalised and by the Israeli government

Anniebach

Caleo who are you accusing of brutalising and why?

Annie, you are not the only one confused by the OP.

The difference between brutalising and brutalisation for a start.

Basically, Israel is breaking international law constantly. But, while they are backed by the USA in all kinds of ways and ignore the UN, those soldiers will carry on with their brutal methods.

Public media, broadcasting such as BBC, understand you now ,

Killing of children is wrong , I have said so often of the Brutality of Hamas, formed from Palestine Branch of the Muslim Brotherhood , we are speaking of Jews and Muslims are we not

Well I am not part of the group who either get deleted for antisemitism or cheer those on who get deleted. So I think I am comfortable in handling my own morality.

Claremont writes truth. Let's be careful it does not happen to people like us that we be taught that certain groups of people are undeserving vermin. Indoctrination is insidious to begin with starting with whoever owns the public media we read.

Anniebach FACT. Natanyahu has been accused of war crimes by the UN.

He isn’t allowed in the UK is he? That must prove something surely.

Thank you Caleo , why not say who is brutalising young soldiers, you speak of ‘the regime that rules Israel today’
You mean the Israeli government ?

Anniebach FACT. Natanyahu has been accused of war crimes by the UN.

The Geneva Conventions and their Additional Protocols are a body of public international law , also known as the Humanitarian Law of Armed Conflicts . They aim to establish minimum protections, standards of humane treatment, and fundamental guarantees of respect to individuals victimized by armed conflicts .

Annie, why don't you inform yourself? There is a lot of evidence of the etnich cleansing going on right now, not in Gaza, but in the occupied West Bank. IDF soldiers are very active in this mission, without mercy, without pity, and with the utmost cruelty. And are protecting illegal settlers in the buring, destruction of homes and terrible treatment of the Palestinians.

Children are being killed like rabbits. Yes, those children may be throwing stones at tanks and bulldozers coming to destroy their homes, their crops, and everything else. That is all they have- children against bulldozers and tanks, and machine guns.

And this is happen all the faster, and all the 'better' because of settlers and soldiers being told that the Palestinians are sub-humans, vermin and rascals- and therefore not deserving of any rights or respect.

This is often how soldiers can do what they do- the only way is to actually believe the enemy is somehow not quite human, or not human at all, but animals and vile terrorists.

This is how other genocides happened in history.

Anniebach, the people I particularly accuse of brutalising young soldiers are people who form the regime that rules Israel today.
Israeli soldiers act more like terrorists than soldiers who have been taught the rules for lawful wartime engagement with an enemy.

Caleo who are you accusing of brutalising and why?

The title is clear 'WEST BANK'

this is NOT Gaza, and not Hamas. Why would people comment unless that have a minimum understanding of the situation.

I guess we need a map of the area .

Sorry about that Anniebach.I do my best.

Caleo little sense in O/P,

Anniebach, babies and children of any colour are not HAMAS.

While it's true that soldiers should be taught how to kill people it's also true that soldiers should be taught the laws of warfare.

God knows how young men, young soldiers, are indoctrinated to kill babies, and boys of twelve going about their lawful , civilian business in the West Bank! I don't want to know how these young men are trained it's enough to know that they are trained to be military criminals, and that this training alters their very souls.

Israel seems to me to be more like my country than is any Islamic country. But not only Israel ---- also the world in general ----is becoming more right wing ,and states are become more repressive .

No it never is.

This thread isn't about Hamas Annie.

Surely hiding everywhere You know schools and hospitals are
Free of hidden terrorists

What does that have to do with this thread Annie? Are Hamas hiding in tunnels, hospitals and schools in the West Bank?

Hamas are Palestinians , Hamas hide in tunnels , hospitals, schools

So does the evils of Hamas.

Why do people always throw up the actions of Hamas as justification for the brutality of the Israeli army?

If the Israelis had only attacked known, or even suspected, members of Hamas you might have a point.
