this is an example of the sickness of the israeli culture. human rights and compassion no longer exists. it has become a norm to treat palestinians and arabs like they're not worthy of respect and compassion. Edited by bud

This is really sad and Israel should know better and it also shows that ALL people of these two countries no matter who they are , love torturing, making fun with each other and that's why they will hate each other forever. Does the Tories government think this is right? Would the Tory government ever criticize the government of Israel? Not before an election.

is this what it has come down to? comparing these despicable acts by israel to the scum of the earth in order to justify their actions? leave it to you to always lower the bar, mr. radical leftist lawyer.

you've been drinking way too much zionist pow juice tonight.

My point is the acts by the Israelis are disagreeable but not despicable. It is a breakdown of military discipline and should be punished, by the Israelis as an independent country, as such.

Brilliant, absolutely f------ brilliant. Right on the money.

I have a hard time feeling sorry for a terrorist being mocked.

How do you know she was a terrorist?

My guess is that if the roles were reversed in that video youd be just fine with the adjective "despicable".

There are a handful of countries--Israel is one of them--who are to be held, so I understand, to far lower standards than official enemies are to be held.

Get with the program, Dre.

You're saying that Israel is held to lower standards than other countries? How?

From what I can tell Israel isnt held to any standards at all. They arent even held to treaties theyve signed in good faith.

They can do pretty much whatever they like with no real consequences.

You think that's is torture?

It's a victory dance. Much better than a victory slap or a victory rape or a victory naked human pyramid.

But overall an unwise/unprofessional display.

It has nothing to do with Israel per se. It's that defenders of Israel, exactly like defenders of the US and Canada (if anything, moreso with the latter two), will always hold their own countries to lower standards. Do you not remember our discussion on US and Canadian support for terrorism? You, jbg, ultimatley decided that terrorism is sometimes justifiable. You're by no means the only one.

Which places our discussions on terrorism in general in an entirely new paradigm. Terrorism isn't wrong, evidently, not in and of itself.

Pretty much...just like Canada and the United States.

9/11 was a consequence, pretty much.

A government without public oversight is like a nuclear plant without lead shielding.

Doesn't it put it back in the paradigm it belongs? One side's terrorist is just another's freedom fighter. Go ask the British and the Sons of Liberty for example.

Sure...I meant--being a generous man--that from the point of view of those who condemn terrorism as wanton evil (so long as it's Islamist) their sudden admittal that they support and defend terrorism ("for the greater good" of course) should change the paradigm of the discussion with them.

Of course they've always supported terrorism. It's just good to have them admit it, eschewing their usual moral cowardice and lust for meaningless debating "points."

I'm not denying that but remind me of the context.

I'm sure she was just out for a pack of smokes when she was brutally arrested. That's what Israelis do...dance around assault innocent people.

#1 - whether she's a criminal or not, what this soldier did to this blindfolded woman, is not only illegal, but it's also another sign of a sick culture of the israeli military.

#2 - you don't know and i don't know why she's being held for. what we do know is that israel has a well-documented history of arresting palestinians and abusing their rights. these soldiers would never treat an israeli this way. correction; quite possible they'd hold the same disrespect and hate towards a palestinian-israeli.

The Israelis treat their captives better than Gilad Shalit has been treated.
