    (...) Cette fois, tout cela a été remonté d’un cran, ou peut-être baissé. À tout ce qui précède, nous pouvons maintenant ajouter ouvertement la soif de sang – pure et simple, sans mélange, sans inhibition et sans déguisement.

    Cette combinaison de racisme et de soif de sang n’est pas seulement répugnante, elle est également volatile et dangereuse. Il y a du racisme dans bien des sociétés : il est généralement caché et marginal. En Israël, il est devenu la norme, il représente peut-être le niveau du politiquement correct actuel et le combattre est perçu comme une trahison.(...)

      ’As a father of a soldier, I understand your distress,’ the prime minister says, and pledges the system will be ’professional and fair with your son.’

      Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke on Thursday with the father of the soldier being court martialed for suspected manslaughter for the deadly shooting of a wounded Palestinian attacker last week in Hebron.

      “As a father of a soldier I understand your distress,” Netanyahu told the father as the military judge, Lt. Col. Ronen Shor, ordered the soldier released from jail and instead kept under open arrest at his base, the headquarters of the Kfir Brigade.

      However, since the military prosecution said it intends to appeal this decision, the judge agreed to stay its execution until Friday.

      Shor’s ruling also stated that while under open arrest, the soldier may not make contact with witnesses in the case or carry a gun.

      “The suspect wasn’t defined as a command element in the field, and no one disputes that he acted of his own initiative,” Shor wrote. “Therefore, there’s a reasonable suspicion that he exceeded his authority and committed the shooting illegally.”
