Israeli Soldiers Sexually Abuse Palestinian Children - by Stephen Lendman

Playing devils advocate just making the claim is going to portray the IDF / Israel in a bad light world wide, and will cause further upheaval between Israel and its Arab neighbors. It will continue to be a vice towards peace.
I wont discount all of it out of hand.. The issue with signing paper they cant read is a common tactic in the middle east, Israel and arab countries, not jsut Israel.
It doesnt make it right though. All parties in this mess need to have there heads cracked together and told to wake up and knock it off.

Perhaps, but I am not sure what the family would have to gain by such claims. Their lives are likely in jeopardy now that they have come forward and spoke against Israel. I won't be surprised if you later see an article claiming they were killed trying to launch a rocket.

I know emotions run high here at ATS sometimes over the Israel/Palestine issue. However this time it seems a tad bit Over The Top. "If" [It is possibly true] an Israeli soldier/soldiers did molest/Rape a child then he/they should be held accountable and charged as rapists
Let's not start making blanket claims against the entire IDF.
That would be absurd IMHO.

Insofar as this story is concerned I would like to actually see the CNN report cited.
Lacking that it does not belong in Breaking News... as it is sourced from a Blog.
I will give time for the members to research the matter further.
