Israel suspended a commander whose troops ordered two Palestinian youths in the West Bank to stand in front of their vehicle to protect it from stones thrown by locals, the army spokesman's office said Friday.

They used 2 human shields to protect their vehicle from rocks. Cut me a break. There are so many atrocities being committed from every side, that it's hard to fathom it all.

The way humans act towards each fascinates and appalls me in equal measure it seems these days.

Unforgivable behavior.

So their vehicle's body means more to them than human lives?

This is sickening.

Sickening indeed. Frankly, unbelievable. At least they were suspended.
All of this insanity has got to stop. From every side.

More Atrocities from Israelis

And the list goes on with the israelis.
