Former Israeli soldiers break the silence on military violations

How do you want the prisoners at Guantanamo brought to justice?

If they are prisoners of war, you don't bring them to justice, you repatriate them when hostilities end. If they are war criminals, then you try them and hang them.

I have no idea. I was just responding to your point about corruption.

Well if its only corruption you want to address...I think it goes with out saying but yes there is corruption in the Israeli military. Overall I think they can be trusted.

via military court?

via military court?

Usually a special tribunal, representing all the (victorious) forces involved in the hostilities.

Continuing the narrow focus on corruption and trust -

There is no such thing as trusting an organization "overall". I mean, yeah, you can say it but it doesn't mean anything.

Trust comes in to play when it comes to individual decisions/cases. Do you trust their narrative without questioning on any given story or case? If you accept that some corruption exists, then you can't. That means you have to question them as long as the allegations appear credible (there's that word again).

It doesn't have to be this difficult. I stand by what I posted. I think this would be better off handled internally all things considered.

Nothing constructive to add?

Sure. Have you?

Elaborate. Of course I do.

Pontificate. Of course you do.
