IDF Terminates Military Career of Soldier Involved in Hebron Incident
(Subsequent to Official Investigation)
GOC Central Command, Maj. Gen. Avi Mizrahi, has officially concluded the
investigation of the arrest operation in Hebron on January 7th, during which
five active Hamas members were arrested and civilian Amr Qawasme was
regrettably killed
Maj. Gen.Mizrahi concluded that the initial firing at Qawasme was done
following a suspicious movement that caused the soldier to feel that his
life was threatened, especially having known about the actions of Wael
Bitar, a senior Hamas operative who was the main suspect of the arrest
operation. Maj. Gen. Mizrahi concluded that this firing was executed in
accordance with IDF rules of engagement.
Maj. Gen Mizrahi has also been presented with the results of the inquiry
into the matter of a second soldier, who, having watched the first soldier
firing at Qawasme, began firing at him as well. Maj. Gen. Mizrahi concluded
that while the second soldier did feel threatened, he acted unprofessionaly.
Therefore, Maj. Gen. Mizrahi has ordered that the soldier's military term be
terminated.
The IDF deeply regrets the death of Amr Qawasme.
To be Attributed to Security Sources:
On the night of January 7th, following to the release of five Hamas
militants from the Palestinian prison in Hebron, a special squad from the
"Duvdevan" counter-terrorism elite unit was called in for an arrest
operation in the city of Hebron. Among the militants, who were part of the
Hamas military infrastructure in the Hebron region, was Hamas senior
operative Wael Bitar. During the operation, the five aforementioned
militants were arrested.
Wael Bitar collaborated with the executor of the double suicide bombing in
Dimona on February 2008, Shehab Natshe. This terror attack resulted in the
death of an Israeli woman and the injury of ten other Israeli civilians.
After the targeting of Shehab, Wael Bitar led the planning of additional
suicide bombings which were thwarted by the IDF. In September 2008, Bitar
was arrested by the Palestinian Authority Security Forces.
The "Duvdevan" unit is a professional, elite unit specializing in close
combat, camouflage and assimilation into hostile territory in order to
capture terror operatives in complex areas and thwarting terror attacks
before they are executed. During 2010, the unit executed sixty four such
operations, this with no casualties or injury to uninvolved civilians.
So Maj. Gen. Mizrahi you found that the second soldier felt his life was threatened but you still are going to throw him out of the IDF.
General, you are a PC idiot!
The fact that you concur that the second soldier felt his life was threatened, should have been the end of it. Why throw this soldier out of the IDF, but for leftist PC feel good rubbish..
You should be thrown out of the IDF for failing to remember your primary responsibility is your soldiers.
You are either trying to win points with the Palestinians or leftist political parties in the Knesset.
So what is it you want ? To go into business with one of the leaders of the PA after you retire or do you want to sit on your rear end in the Knesset and get fat off the free food?
