“They’re all without shirts and they have a stick with a white cloth on it. The soldier feels threatened and opens fire. He declares that they’re terrorists. They (the Israeli forces) open fire. Two (hostages) are killed immediately,” the official told reporters in a phone briefing.
The third hostage was wounded and retreated into a nearby building where he called for help in Hebrew, the official said.
“Immediately the battalion commander issues a ceasefire order, but again there’s another burst of fire towards the third figure and he also dies,” the official said. “This was against our rules of engagement,” he added.
But remember, not a genocide.
The IDF’s policy seems to be, “Kill them all. Let Yahweh sort them out.”
I think you’re technically correct in this instance.
Probably standard IDF practice considering they’ve been doing this to Palestinian civilians since they entered Gaza.
“they have a stick with a white cloth on it. The soldier feels threatened”
So many pieces of news just establish that the IDF is full of pussies. “He’s waving a white flag… WE’RE ALL GONNA DIE!!! TAKE HIM OUT FOR THE LOVE OF GOD”
These are the people our world leaders support. Make it extremely uncomfortable for them to continue doing so, or they’ll get inspired.
