Police told to investigate B'Tselem's 'coincidences'
Arutz Sheva ^ | 26/3/16

Posted on 03/26/2016 3:17:09 PM PDT by Eleutheria5

Attorney Itamar Ben-Gvir and Lehava director Bentzi Gopshtain, both nationalist activists of the Otzma Yehudit party and residents of Kiryat Arba, contacted the Hevron police on Saturday night in a request for an investigation.

The two called on police to investigate the activist of the radical leftist NGO B'Tselem who last Thursday filmed a soldier shooting a wounded Arab terrorist in the city, mere minutes after the terrorist and an accomplice stabbed and wounded a soldier.

Following the video footage the soldier was arrested and accused of murder. He has argued he shot the terrorist because he thought he was about to detonate a bomb belt, claiming there were concerns the terrorist had a bomb belt under his unseasonable coat which were corroborated by video evidence and testimony. The IDF on Saturday night claimed the terrorist had been checked and found not to have a bomb belt before the incident.

In the complaint sent on Saturday night, Ben-Gvir wrote, "I turn to you in my name and the name of my client Mr. Bentzi Gopshtain in a request to launch an investigation against the B'Tselem investigator Imad Abu Shamsiyeh who 'by coincidence' filmed the incident in Hevron immediately after the terrorist arrived to murder IDF soldiers."

Something weird about the whole story. They checked him and found that he didn't have a bomb belt (but DID have a knife), so they let him pass the checkpoint WITH a knife? And then he stabbed a soldier, someone shot him and wounded him, but this guy finishes him with a second shot. Three lbs of crap in a two pound bag.

Satan walks to and fro upon the face of the earth and he has minions everywhere

Unfortunately, too many of those minions are in a government and/or media force

Or maybe if they missed the knife, they might have missed a bomb belt, too, and the defendant’s apprehension was reasonable. So why doesn’t this occur to his defense counsel.

“but I fear he is in a lot of trouble.”

Which is why we should care. Psycho muslim slashers’ blood should be cheap and stay so. This case should have been struck down at arraignment.

I meant who cares that the guy died.

but if an American did this and it was videoed, oh boy!!

I have NO IDEA about the judicial process for a soldier in Israel nor do I know the prison sentences.

I know in some parts of W Europe you can kill 60 people and get the max 20 years.

“I meant who cares that the guy died.”

I care that there was only one dead Jihadi.

W Europe? Does it still exist? Have they changed its name yet? Is the Mona Lisa’s face slashed yet?

Sure do. Shame on Netanyahu and Yallon to attack the soldier before getting all the facts.

If they missed the knife, it’s reasonable to say they also missed a bomb.

And there were two perps. Were both checked for knives and bombs? B’tzelem is as disreputable a mob of film-editing BS artists as ever drew breath.

The muzzie was shot but obviously not well enough so needed a second shooting! That second shooting should never be considered a crime. To bad a second bullet was needed is all I have to say. Should be a given rule for teen thugs also.
