 The Sadism of the Israeli Occupation
The Guardian reports on a building scandal in Israel over the extreme
brutality of its occupation of the Palestinians in the West Bank.
Excerpt:

    ' According to Yishai Karin: 'At one point or another of their
service, the majority of the interviewees enjoyed violence. They
enjoyed the violence because it broke the routine and they liked the
destruction and the chaos. They also enjoyed the feeling of power in
the violence and the sense of danger.' In the words of one soldier:
'The truth? When there is chaos, I like it. That's when I enjoy it.
It's like a drug. If I don't go into Rafah, and if there isn't some
kind of riot once in some weeks, I go nuts.' . . . One described
beating women. 'With women I have no problem. With women, one threw a
clog at me and I kicked her here [pointing to the crotch], I broke
everything there. She can't have children. Next time she won't throw
clogs at me. When one of them [a woman] spat at me, I gave her the
rifle butt in the face. She doesn't have what to spit with any more.'
'
The idea that these sorts of actions derive from 'lack of training' is
absurd. They derive from hatred and from being able to act with
impunity. They are a burden of the strong who have the opportunity to
abuse the weak.
The US political elite and media that conceals the brutality of the
Israeli occupation for sectional political gains are accomplices to
this sadism, and their silence endangers the security of the United
States. When we cannot understand why Arab audiences, who are
perfectly aware of what the Israeli army has been doing to
Palestinians for decades, are outraged, it leads us into policy
mistakes in dealing with the Middle East. No one in the US media ever
talks about Zionofascism, and the campus groups who yoke the word
'fascism' to other religions and peoples are most often trying to
divert attention from their own authoritarianism and approval of
brutality.

Metto anche la parte che hai scordato di copiare, eh.
==============================================================================
A spokeswoman for the Israeli army said that, if a soldier deviates from the 
army's norms, they could be investigated by the military police or face 
*criminal* investigation.
She said: 'It should be noted that since the events described in Nufar 
Yishai-Karin's research the number of ethical violations by IDF soldiers 
involving the Palestinian population has consistently *dropped*. This trend has 
continued in the last few years.'

L'articolo parla solo di uno studio di uno psicologo israeliano.
Niente "scandalo" ne fantasiosa "estrema brutalita'".

 *criminal* investigation.
Cazzo, che garanzia.
