Ben-Shitrit responds by saying that the military prosecutor and the whole nation should “kiss our hands”, since the force behaves so ethically, doing “holy work.” He continues:
But then he restrains himself: “But we are a state of law, and it’s the IDF, and there is international law.”1
This was not the first time Ben-Shitrit had shared his murderous fantasies. These comments echoed an earlier video he did in June 2023 when he was an army reservist in the West Bank, where he wondered:

According to Drop Site News, Khalil and fellow journalist Zeinab Faraj were working in southern Lebanon when a car they were following was hit by an Israeli drone strike at 2:45 pm local time, killing its occupants. Khalil and Faraj sought shelter in a nearby house, where Khalil called her editors and family. While Khalil was still alive, Lebanese president Joseph Aoun released a statement calling on the Red Cross and United Nations to help rescue Khalil and Faraj. At 4:27 pm, the house where Khalil and Faraj were sheltering was bombed by the Israeli military. The Red Cross attempted a rescue and successfully evacuated Faraj, who was injured, and two civilians who had been killed, but were forced to withdraw before reaching Khalil as the Israeli military fired on their vehicles and position. The Red Cross was eventually able to return to the area, where Khalil was pronounced dead.

The 227th General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), representing over one million members and nearly 8,000 congregations, voted 454-15 on June 30, 2026 in Milwaukee to officially declare Israel's war in Gaza a genocide and a violation of international law. The same assembly also voted unanimously to divest from Palantir Technologies and GE Aerospace, whose AI targeting and aircraft engine technologies are used by the Israeli military. Members are called to lobby Congress for an arms embargo against Israel and boycott Israeli products contributing to the war.
The PCUSA was the first major institution worldwide to divest from companies profiting from Israeli occupation, beginning in 2014, and declared Israel an apartheid state in 2022. A Palestinian Christian from Nazareth told commissioners her family sheltering in Gaza's Saint Porphyrius Church was killed in an Israeli airstrike, including two doctors and a six-month-old baby. In a related development, the American Academy of Religion, with 6,000 members worldwide, separately voted 98% in favor of a resolution calling the war a "scholasticide," describing it as an intentional effort to destroy the Palestinian education system.

What I do not get is how anyone can not see how fraudulent Israel is?
Netanyahu obviously is a Turk from Poland and has no Mideast connection at all.
Neither did Golda Meir or Menachem Begin, who were Russian.
The Hebrew were an Arab tribe, so should have darker skin and other Arab features.
You can also trace heritage through language, but the language of the Zionist is Yiddish, which is Germanic, and not from the Mideast.
Actual Hebrew ancestors are Semitic because they speak an Arab dialect, and those who speak a Germanic language are not.
I haven't paid enough attention over the generations to have known that, but if you say so ...
The comment worth addressing: "how fraudulent Israel is?"
Critics of Balfour may extend their attitude to present day Israel.
I'm not so sure.
The United States of America occupies the lower 48, claims (this portion of North America, & perhaps soon Canada) as its homeland, but which it conquered shamefully. BUT !
It's been centuries.
Even if the original means was wrongful, would simply handing it back to the fragmentary remnants of the aboriginal nations / Peoples undo injustice, or compound it?
Similar story in Israel perhaps.
HOWEVER:
The atrocity Netanyahu is perpetrating militarily is horrific.
fine
The thing about the Balfour Declaration is that since England had no control over Palestine at the time, it clearly was a bribe.
It was saying that, "if you commit espionage to help us win WWI, we will reward you after we have won".
Which then actually made the Zionists complicit in crimes, like stealing the Zimmerman Letter and the formula for synthetic acetone for the production of cordite.
But since Israel has existed for 80 years, we do also have to consider those born there, who would not automatically inherit the sins of their parents.
However, I am also willing to condemn them since we have all seen the Jewish settlers murdering native Palestinians in order to steal their homes, attacking the USS Liberty, blockading food ships like the Greta Thunberg flotilla, bombing Gaza, etc.
With Israel, the extreme is that those claiming ancestral rights demand the total destruction of the current native owners.
With the US, the opposite extreme is that those claiming current ownership totally nullifies any ancestral rights.
And I think both are wrong and that the rights of no one are safe unless you try to accommodate the rights of both ancestral and current land owners.
Its not that hard.
All you have to do in Israel is return all land to the native owners if it was not legally purchased by the immigrants.
With the US, all you have to do is stop imposing illegal economic sanctions on other countries, and make legal immigration reasonably easy.
I own / live on a few hundred acres in ~central NY State.
No mortgage, no lien, BUT !
I investigated bequeathing it back to the aboriginals whose ancestors occupied it. BUT !
It appears I can bequeath ownership but NOT sovereignty.
If I did hand it over to a "tribe", they (the new owners) would still have to pay $taxes on it, etc.
I suspect that standard applies throughout our solar system.
I believe sovereignty is only an issue if rights are not being equally protected.
Like in Israel, the Palestinians essentially have no rights.
They are being shot, arrest, evicted, blocked, not allowed to vote, etc.
Which is why I don't think a 2 state solution would work.
It would seem only a 1 state solution would prevent discrimination?
Which causes me a contradiction.
I do not trust government, so am sort of an anarchist.
Yet the more you combine different groups, the more you can neutralize discrimination against any one group.
So a world wide means of protection of individual rights would seem best?
Like to stop the current US hostilities against Venezuela and Iran.
And of course an individualist anarchist and a globalist are extreme opposites.
As for aboriginals, they are mostly dead and gone, so there just is not much that can be done.
