After I made this suggestion to Yaalon, I received this email from Robin Ticker.
Time to reevaluate IDF Ethics and Morals and the source of IDF warped sense of “values”.Let’s follow their “morals” and “ethics” to the end.After Israel finds this soldier guilty of not being distressed or concerned with the killing of a terrorist, Israel will probably have to show their remorse and apologize for all the terrorists they have killed ever since the knife intifada started. Many of the terrorists were children. Israel is now guilty of murdering children and teens. Israel will start a rehab center for them. More incentives for the vast growing pool of existing Palestinian terrorists validating their “Resistance and aggression to the Occupation”
How can the IDF investigate itself objectively especially when their superiors openly had and have a clear bias against the soldier?Here is a very emotionally healthy reaction from Biblical Path to Peace by Moshe Elkman following the news that the military court found this soldier fit to be tried for murder.INSANITY PLUS!!!!IDF: Enough evidence to charge Hebron soldier in killing???
I am in shock
We at Biblical Path To Peace do believe that there can be peace between Arab and Jew when the non Jew follows the Noahide Laws….but to jail a soldier who has killed a terrorist? Absolutely insane!!!!!!
I believe that PM Netanyahu must immediately introduce the death penalty to any terrorist, decorate any soldier or citizen who kills a terrorist and send the terrorists entire family out of Israel.
Biblical Path To Peace http://www.biblicalpathtopeace.org/ My comments: (Robin)Moshe Elkman says he was in shock with the result of the investigation. I wasn’t. I expected it. How could this investigation be objective when the Prime Minister, the Defense Minister and the IDF Chief of Staff all expressed their bias before the military investigation began based on warped “morals, ethics and values” of the IDF?Where does the IDF get their morals, ethics and values? It comes from being pressured by our enemies and the International Courts and their agenda to weaken the IDF and Israel’s right to defend itself.It’s quite disturbing that Yaalon concluded that this soldier can not control his emotions following a terror attack against him and his comrades and acted out of lack of self control rather than believing that the soldier acted in self defense for himself and everyone in the area.Apparently according to IDF higher standard of moral and ethical “values”, soldiers are to be distressed over the loss of life of a terrorist rather than to be relieved that they are still alive. Apparently they concluded that this soldier is fit to be tried for murdering a terrorist (an oxymoron) because not only didn’t the soldier emotionally fall apart after neutralizing the terrorist, he didn’t even show remorse and even felt he deserved to be congratulated.As you can tell from Moshe Elkman’s response, there are many of us, other than the actual soldier, who are quite glad that this terrorist was neutralized for good. BH he will not be attacking any more soldiers or civilians in the future. I find that a reason to celebrate. I am not particularly distressed or concerned about his death either. I doubt this terrorist had any remorse that he stabbed the soldiers and would be more than happy to do so again and as many civilians as he possibly could, given the opportunity.From where does the IDF learn that one is expected and even required to feel distress or concern over the death of a terrorist who is out to kill you? Relief is the most natural response for most moral and ethical people.One who adds to the Torah subtracts from the Torah.Had the terrorist gone on to murder additional innocent victims, surely this soldier would have regretted having left him alive especially if he had to face the family of the next victim. It’s possibly harder to live with yourself as being responsible for the death of an innocent victim than being locked up in jail for killing a wannabe murderer.IDF: Enough evidence to charge Hebron soldier in killing‘I wouldn’t have fired if I didn’t feel I was in imminent danger,’ soldier who shot wounded Palestinian stabber to death says in court, but prosecutors say he showed no signs of distress or concern.The following post was written before the conclusions of the IDF Military court. As you can see, I did not trust nor have high expectations from the IDF investigation whose leadership have lost their moral compass.Questioning The Leadership of the PM and the IDF.

If these “officials” had only waited a couple of hours before playing judge, jury and executioner, they would probably have been believed as insiders. This way, nobody believes them any more. This will cost them latest at the next elections.
In BB;s Israel terror is like the LOTTO…… I bet BB has no ideas as to how to deal with this, as usual. A mediocre man with no ideas.
what about confiscating the cash as terror generated funds… or tearing the new villa down… or a covert op blowing it up…… I am sure the supremes will nix any approach.
the factual MO of BB and his appointee Yaalon is a relentless vendetta against nationalists and settlers and anyone who proposes that “JEWISH SETTLEMENT IN YS IS LEGAL AND LEGITIMATE”
their attack on the soldier is a continuation of the same MO, Perhaps they were angry that he shook Baruch Marzel’s hand after killing the jew killer.
They have a plan, they have an agenda, and everthing they do facilitates that agenda from obstructing settlement, stalking natinalist Jews and dissenters,facilitating illegal euro arab buildings; pandering to terrorists and the PA. They are in 100% cooperation with the euros, the arabs, the PA and the sacrifice of the soldier is their “Breaker Morant” moment to seal their deal.
they did more than that, they obstucted the due process of law and defacto publicly issued orders to their subordinates conducting the investigation and indictment to find the soldier guilty. Israelis should demand their resignations and indictments for abuse of authority and obstructing justice.
NO, that does not explain BB/Yaalons obstruction of settlement outside the ghetto boundaries; the facilitation of euros and others to build illegal arab cities in YS; the declaration of Jewish baby burning which sparked the stabbings; the declaration of a soldiers guilt prior to investigation. NO, the enthusiasm of BB Yaalon goes far beyond pressure, it demonstrates their covert plans to deligitimize nationalists, settlers in order to pave the way for an Israeli acceptance of givng away YS.
the ones who could not control their enthusiastic emotions were BB, Rivlin, Erdan and Yaalon at Duma and BB Yaalon in this incident: breaching all accepted global standards of leadership, law and ethics to pressure their military subordinates to obstruct justice and due process.
not the IDF standards or their fault… it is the fault of their commanding officers and BB Yaalon. BB Yaalon for obstructing justice and pressuring their subordinates for a guilty outcome and the lower commanders for obeying illegal orders to do so. It is a criminal warping of the values by the top leadership.
I am sure that every soldier and medic on the scene and following the story would much rather have at their side the soldier who erred on the side of caution and safety, killing the terrorist, rather than BB, Yaalon and the military prosecuting stooges who would err on the side of the terrorist and get everyone blown up.
