Israeli Soldiers Tell Story of Savage Cruelty in Gaza - One Hidden from Western Public
Israel's twin goals have been biblical vengeance and the elimination of Gaza - a genocidal rampage to drive the terrified population out, ideally into neighbouring Egypt. If that was not clear enough already, six Israeli soldiers recently stepped forward to speak out about what they had witnessed while serving in Gaza - a story the western media has entirely failed to report.
Their testimonies, published by the Israel-based publication 972 last week, confirm what Palestinians have been saying for months.
Commanders have authorised their troops to open fire on Palestinians at will. Anyone entering an area the Israeli military is treating as a "no-go zone" is shot on sight, whether man, woman or child.
After months of an Israeli aid blockade that has created a man-made famine, Israel's military has turned the people of Gaza's ever-more frantic search for food into a game of Russian roulette.
This perhaps explains, in part, why so many Palestinians are unaccounted for - Save the Children estimates some 21,000 children are missing.The soldiers quoted in 972 say the victims of their shoot-everyone policy are bulldozed out of view along routes where international aid convoys pass.
A reserve soldier, identified only as S, said aCaterpillar bulldozer "clears the area of corpses, buries them under the rubble, and flips [them] aside so that the convoys don't see it- [so that] images of people in advanced stages of decay don't come out". The soldier also noted:"The whole area [of Gaza where the army operates] was full of bodies… There is a horrific smell of death."
