Amos Harel, Haaretz Correspondent: IDF general orders probe into wrongful shooting of Palestinian
Talkback

As long as there isn`t a wave of outcry going
through the Israeli public after an incredible
incident like this, there remains something
deeply wrong within Israels society.

The roots of this problem go much deeper, a
simple army investigation just won`t be good
enough. I know, it`s hard to do some serious
"soul-searching" if everyone has a son, daughter, brother, sister...serving in the
IDF. (Having also the draft in Switzerland,
we would face exactly the same problem).

But if Israels "silent majority" is not (as
soon as possible) starting to ask some
serious questions, she will never have a
chance to regain the "moral highground".

Mission impossible.
