And?
When basically every Israeli is "Israeli troops," it really doesn't mean much.
I have an immigrant friend from a country (not Israel) with mandatory military service. He spent a year playing a French horn or something in a military band -- whoop-de-fucking-do. But people like the article writer would have us believe that he's equivalent to the most gung-ho zealot commando simply because he did the bare minimum of his legal obligation.
It's just dishonest and unpersuasive to anyone who isn't ignorant about Israel's conscription policies.
Now, the part about them "openly calling for genocide" -- that's persuasive. But it would've been a lot more so if the writer hadn't flushed their credibility due to the above.
Everyone potentially has a photo of them in the army, doesn't mean much
I mean.... considering military service is mandatory in Isreal how is this a surprise??????
He also won on a rare reversal judgement, looked like bs. The Swiss guy was super chill about it though.
Is there evidence he has engaged in attacks on civilians, or just that he was drafted into the military? As many have mentioned military service is compulsory for many Israelis and does not directly imply wrongdoing or support of wrongdoings by the Israeli government and military.
I can see that nose and ears aren't matching (but might be from different lighting). Also this face preset is quite common
