Yet another Israeli atrocity

[nicky g]

An army commander is recorded on radio on and accused by his own troops of murdering an innocent thirteen year-old girl and what does he get charged with by the Israeli High Command? "Conduct unbecoming an officer" - as if he'd mistreated a dog or sworn in the presence of a lady.


"The official account claimed that Iman was shot as she walked towards an army post with her schoolbag because soldiers feared she was carrying a bomb.

But the tape recording of the radio conversation between soldiers at the scene reveals that, from the beginning, she was identified as a child and at no point was a bomb spoken about nor was she described as a threat. Iman was also at least 100 yards from any soldier .

Instead, the tape shows that the soldiers swiftly identified her as a "girl of about 10" who was "scared to death".

The tape also reveals that the soldiers said Iman was headed eastwards, away from the army post and back into the refugee camp, when she was shot.

At that point, Captain R took the unusual decision to leave the post in pursuit of the girl. He shot her dead and then "confirmed the kill" by emptying his magazine into her body. "
