-
I witnessed the Israeli Defense Forces
-
shooting at the crowds of Palestinians.
-
As a professional soldier with a very
-
long career, what was your professional
-
opinion of what was happening?
-
In my most frank assessment, I would say
-
that they're criminal. In my entire
-
career, have I never witnessed the level
-
of brutality
-
and use of indiscriminate and
-
unnecessary force against a civilian
-
population, an unarmed, starving
-
population. I've never witnessed that in
-
all of the places I've been deployed to
-
war until I was in Gaza at the hands of
-
the IDF and US contractors.
-
Based on the knowledge you have, do you
-
think that you were a witness then to to
-
war crimes? I think you're saying that
-
very emphatically.
-
Without question, I witnessed war
-
crimes. Using artillery rounds, mortar
-
rounds, firing tank rounds into unarmed
-
civilians is a war crime.
