Netanyahu defends Israeli army after soldier shot wounded Palestinian
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu defended the Israeli army Sunday as controversy gripped the country over a soldier caught on video shooting a Palestinian assailant in the head as he lay on the ground.The issue reportedly sparked a bitter argument behind closed doors at the Israeli government’s weekly cabinet meeting on Sunday. Thursday’s shooting incident led to the soldier’s arrest and strong condemnation from military officials, but some rightwing politicians and their supporters have reacted angrily to the response.
