4. Nu, where is the "beating"? Is this the right video?
The Palestinians who besmirch Israel's name all over the world are renowned for “creative video”. The so called "abuse" would not happen if these people, intent on our destruction, were NOT allowed entry into Israel! They come here, legally or illegally, take our jobs and are not shy when it comes to taking Israeli money and then they bite the hand that feeds. However, if there is a case to answer for then this must be brought to court. If not, we are playing into hands of people, Jewish and Gentile Israel haters like Judge Goldstone, who are looking for excuses to accuse Israel everything from the Great Flood to the 2004 Tsunami.

7. Officers won't be prosecuted for 'slight beating'
mockery of justice, what about assult with intention. incerdible place this Israel, I wonder what happens if the same soldier assaults an Israeli boy. May be the father of that soldier has assaulted him, that is OK then, I wonder!!! They even did not dare to show the whole video, the paper must be ashamed. Ther is such a thing called light beating. except in Israel

8. Assaulting Border Guard officers...her got a resonable force
.....well that criminal assaut argument only an acceptable argument in a non- war situation.In a military security enforcement resonable force is allowed to effcet an arrest. BTW this is a hearsay records not good evidence,the decision of the court stands correct considering is was resonable force given to the circumstances and the surroinding circumstance.Infact it is that pal who assaulted a lawfull public officer of the Israel. If it had been a politician who assualted a civilan I would have impose a 30 day prisonment. Such is not the case here. You interpret the law of the nation as it is.The court cannot do otherwise. So this for the inferior tribunal to settle. Please send that soldier for a shot holiday, he was only doing his job making an arrest using resonable force and the law allows it.: -) thats all. BTW these case was reported long long ago.....i was also under the impression that it was actionable in criminal law. But the law in Israel is slightly diffrent and should be given it statutory intention. This is the business of the parliament to legislate, even so cannot be retrospective cos that soldier shall not be subjected to resjudicator in restro.....the case is not like an ordinary criminal act od striking a civilian fro no reason !Ther is reason to effect an arrest lawfully with resonable force. Ther force used was resonable and justified.

9. So if a Palestinian slightly beats a border policeman
that too will be OK? and he will live to tell the tale? More proof of just how insidiously the the militarily enforced occupation subtly undermines our ethics.

10. A "slight beating".
Is it OK if I find a jew tomorrow (which is impossible where I live), and give him or her a slight beating? David #5, you forgot that a jew was also responsible for the sinking of the Tiatanic!

11. MILITARY ETHICS is not LEGAL ETHICS in the lay man terms...
Dot mix up, there is no ethics in war ton zone when terrorist run amok ! But if you touch an lawful public or military officer of Israel or any Natio n who is in the course of duty, you attract punishment of imprisonment, let these be a SIGNAL to detter, educate, DONT MES WITH THE POLICE OF THE IDF ! Matter cant be any clearer than this ! Attorney Sfard ned top go to the law academy to pass his crimnal law once again !

12. Left
Wow! All our friends in the left are furious because for once things have been judged with eyes open and not by blindly following legal writings! This must be a start of a REAL self defence politic!
