IDF soldiers allowed a dog to maul a palestinian man with down's syndrome and then left him to die from his wounds according to his mother. 
 

how does this behaviour make israel safer from terrorism?

Sadly another victim of Hamas. If they had an ounce of decency they'd surrender and end this.

A victim of hamas? who was it that set a dog on him?

[ToraToraTora]

Hamas created the conditions for what is happenning. If you pull a gun on a cop and he shoots you, whose fault is that?

[Old_Geezer]

I think that is something those individually involved need to explain. It should not be normal practice for any military.

Release the hostages.

what did this person do to "deserve it" then toratoratora?

[ToraToraTora]

Nothing he's a victim of Hamas terrorism.

This all stems from the baby roasting spree on Oct 7th, why is that so difficult to grasp?

Christ, enough of your repetitive drivel.

you are aware that the IDF was doing this kind of thing before oct 7th? and that they do it in the west bank as well?

This doesn't make sense.  The dog attacked his hand - hardly life threatening - and a doctor was brought to him.  I can't make head nor tail or what happened but as you say, the story is 'according to his mother'.

10:39 I think untitled has a right to post and it's no where near as repetitive as some.

According to his Palestinian mother.  Righto.

//some wounds tend to bleed without stitches naomi//

 

But the mother says they called a doctor.  The style of journalism aside - clearly designed to tug at heartstrings - the story makes no sense.

According to the report the dog bit the man three times, chest, hand and arm. The arm sounds the most serious as that's where the brachial artery is. Left unattended a person with a severed artery can be unconscious in 30 seconds and dead in ninety. If this person was a doctor s/he would know that you don't just apply a tourniquet and leave it, yet is was still there when he was found. I suggest the man had already died before the doctor attended.

indeed naomi. according to her, the doctor insisted he was fine and then ordered the family to leave at gunpoint. when they returned he had bled to death because his wounds had not been treated. 
 

why shouldn't this story pull at the heart strings? it describes a person being killed by cruelty and negligence on the part of IDF soldiers. do you think we shouldn't care about that? do you disbelieve his mother?

"According to his Palestinian mother.  Righto."
 

what's that supposed to mean spungle?

[naomi24]

I think Vulcan's story is more likely,m untitled.

When there's a particularly outrageous incident reported the IDF say they will investigate it.

Then they promptly forget all about it.

They are butchers killing in the name of faith and country.

I'm reminded of the USA in the 19th Century.  The only good injun is a dead one.  Change 'injun' to Palestinian and you have the Israeli mindset.

Butchers.
