This is a big story in Israel. On Saturday, Channel 13 anchorwoman Oshrat Kotler commented on a case of sadistic Israeli soldier beatings of a Palestinian father and son in occupied territory, saying:
They send children to the army, to the territories, and get them back human animals. That’s the result of the occupation.
The response was immediate. Thousands of expressions
of rage streamed in from audiences, and many leaders on the right were
condemnatory. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu tweeted:
Proud of IDF soldiers and love them very much. Oshrat Kotler’s words should be roundly condemned.
Education Minister Naftali Bennett Bennett wrote:
Oshrat, you’re confused. IDF soldiers give their lives so you can sleep peacefully. Human animals are the terrorists who murder children in their beds, a young girl on a walk or a whole family driving on the road. IDF soldiers are our strength. Our children. Apologize.
