The difference - Hamas/Hezbollah/Islamic Jihad/Al Qaeda/Kalam hide behind civilians using them as human shields and Israel stands in front of them protecting them like shields!
The Israeli military has charged two of its soldiers with endangering the life of a Palestinian boy during Israel's offensive against Hamas in Gaza.
The army said the soldiers, who had been searching a building, had instructed the nine-year-old to open bags they suspected were booby-trapped.
This practice, banned by the Israeli military, is known as using someone as a human shield.
Use of civilians as human shields is widely considered a war crime.
The Israeli rights organisation, B'Tselem welcomed the indictments.
But the group repeated its call for an independent investigation of the army's operation in Gaza.
The war lasted for 22 days starting on 27 December 2008.
The Israeli military has opened about 150 investigations into alleged misconduct during the operation, which was named "Cast Lead".
About 40 of these are criminal investigations. This is the second to lead to an indictment. In the first, a soldier was jailed for seven months for using a credit card he stole from a Palestinian in Gaza to withdraw money in Israel.
Also, in January, the Israel military said it had reprimanded two top army officers for authorising an artillery attack using white phosphorus shells which hit a UN compound in Gaza last year.
Critics have said it is not sufficient for the military to investigate itself.
In September 2009, South African judge Richard Goldstone delivered a report to the UN Human Rights Council that concluded that war crimes had been committed by the Israeli military and Hamas, the Islamist militant group that runs Gaza.
He accused Israel of deliberately targeting civilians and civilian infrastructure during the conflict.
Hamas's use of indiscriminate rocket fire was judged a war crime
well, clearly you are an antisemite and only want to see dead jews floating in the sea.
How long do you think it will take for the local zionazis to deflect away from the OP by insisting that you want to see more dead jews?

I think the main response will be "Well the Israeli Military is judging it's own."
The thing is, this is only the ones they decided to bring forward, there could be even more than this.
I find it deeply troubling that these sort of crimes occurred. I know I would be even more appalled if U.S troops were doing this to people in Afghanistan and Iraq.
Every militrary and police force in the world reserves the right to discipline its own people, including the US and every european state. why should the IDF be held to a different standrd?
And this is not the only case brought before the militray justice system, many of them were found guilty and jailed, just to let you know.
And, yes - I, too find the case extremely troubling. if the alligations will be proven (which from everything i've read is the most likely scenario), these soldiers should spend the next few years of their lives in jail.

What? Might want to explain this one a bit more.
Are people in the U.S or U.K not allowed to go to mass because of the Military?
Police in the US have internal affairs, the Navy, Army and Air Force JAG prosecute soldiers in these branches. how is this any different.
your second question is off topic, but i'll answer it anyway: if it was known that atendees at a specific mass were going to break out in a mass wave of violence - i would hope so!
Another 'Doggie thinks Israelis and Jews are baaaaaad' OP.
Another 'Doggie thinks Israelis and Jews are baaaaaad' OP.
Zionism is good, anti-Zionism is bad. Period. The IDF is investigating the possibility that war crimes were committed. Good. Dogbert worries whether other warcrimes are being ignored. You are right, Dogbert, you have no idea. But this I do know: the Palestinian militants do hide behind civilians and are encouraged to do so by their leaders. And the IDF are investigating their own who do it.
The OP is defective because its internal logic and the evidence contradict the implied accusation.

I'm not the only one asking questions. Also, all the OP is doing is posting a news article from BBC.
see, Dog, THAT didn't take long, did it.
well.. you know how the BBC hates jews and all... probably want to see dead jew babies floating in the sea after posting that article..
