After a couple of hours, Israeli soldiers found him. He says they struck his head and face and in the areas where he had been shot. Then they dragged him by his legs, lifted him by his hands and feet and threw him onto the hood of the military jeep.

“I screamed because of the heat,” he said. “Then, one of the soldiers started cursing at me and told me to be quiet.”

The military said its forces had tied Abadi to the hood of the jeep to transport him to paramedics.

But Nebal Farsakh, a spokesperson for the Palestinian Red Crescent rescue service, said the army had sealed off the area and prevented paramedics from tending to the wounded for at least an hour.

In dashboard camera footage obtained by the AP, the jeep to which Abadi was tied drove past at least two ambulances. Abadi said he was lashed to the jeep for about half an hour before soldiers untied him and released him to paramedics.

    The military said it was investigating the incident and that it did not reflect its values.

    Don’t worry everybody. They said this isn’t the norm.

    /s

    Fuckers.

      I haven’t read the article but I always get funny about titles like this. “He posed no threat” could mean a completely innocent bystander although you would think the title would have said that because it would get more clicks, or an enemy combatant who had killed or wounded some idf soldiers before being wounded himself and then “posing no threat.” Not saying it’s right but if a good friend had just been killed by this person I can at the very least understand why they may have done what is being implied.

        There are laws in war that the “most moral army in the world” is supposed to follow. This breaks them and they know it very well.

        They don’t care, they just want to be as cruel as possible. It’s an ongoing genocide.

        He wasn’t a combatant and he hadn’t killed anyone. He was an innocent bystander and even the IDF admit it.

        Not sure why you put so much energy into making up a fake scenario.

          To be honest this scenario takes me less energy than the idea that one side is indiscriminately killing and torturing 100% innocent people purely based on their tribe. I still believe 95% of the stories are biased or missing important context but I can accept that there are going to be outliers that are plain evil even within context. For example the actions on oct 8 were plain evil even within context. If you can justify those actions as reasonable you can justify these actions as reasonable.

            Looking at someone being tortured and your first thought is “must have done something to deserve this”. That’s fucked up.

            And then you immediately tell everybody else this thought. “This guy probably deserved it!” You did not take a couple of seconds to check whether your theory is contradicted by the article. You victimized the guy again with your baseless accusation, but you did not think or care about that.

            Your excuse for this? Can’t accept the IDF soldiers being ontologically evil. Yeah me neither pal, it’s a childish concept. There are actual material reasons for the cruelty. If you want to steal someone’s land, you need to drive them out, and being cruel is a tried and true method to achieve this. No need to invoke good and evil, and no need to invent your own reality.

            But of course, you do not afford the same to Hamas. No elaborate theory-crafting in this instance. There you have no problem declaring them just plain evil.

            What flavor evil are you?

        This guy just poked his head out to see what all the noise was and got shot twice. Israel seems to be shooting Palestinians indiscriminately.
