IDF Sgt. Elor Azariya was indicted on Monday, 10 Nissan on charges of manslaughter for shooting the wounded terrorist in Hebron on Purim who stabbed and wounded an IDF soldier minutes earlier.
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu commented “As the father of a soldier and as Prime Minister, I would like to reiterate: The IDF backs its soldiers. I am convinced that an examination of the event in Hebron will be done responsibly and sagaciously. In my familiarity with the military justice system, I am convinced that the court will consider all circumstances regarding the incident. Our soldiers are not murderers. They act against murderers and I hope that a way will be found to balance between the action and the overall context of the event. In the meantime, I suggest that everyone lower the flames.”
The parents and family of the soldier organized a support rally which will take place on Tuesday evening at Rabin Square in Tel Aviv.

TRUE Yidden survived the oppression of the czar’s army and the Ottomans, we will survive the Hellenists attempts to conscript us into their moral cesspool abyss. It is a psak from daas Torah to not join this Hellenist army.
Karlbenmarx Your remark is a foolish one!(in my opinion)
#1, what shaychos in the world? Do you have an idea why there are people who do not believe you and your friends when you cry wolf?
Bibi too little too late!!!!
You and your gang inflamed the fire by condemning the soldier without knowing the facts and with out taking into consideration the overall circumstance these soldiers are in. They are fighting a ruthless enemy.
Now, when the poll showed that the people think that you and your DM were totally wrong, you come out with a somewhat favorable statement.
Shame on you. You have got to go. As clearly you are just another clever dirty politician.
Fech!!!
