Visual: Blindfolded Palestinian shot by soldier with rubber bullet

The footage, filmed on 7 July 2008, shows a soldier firing a rubber-coated bullet at a handcuffed, blindfolded Palestinian from almost point-blank range. Several security forces were present, among them a lieutenant-colonel who was holding the Palestinians arm when the shot was fired. B'Tselem immediately published the footage and sent a copy to the Military Police Investigation Unit. The media reported that following the airing of the video, the army opened an investigation, and that the Judea and Samaria Division Commander had known about the incident but had taken no action in the matter.
On 20 July 2008, B'Tselem was given the video cassette by a Palestinian youngster filmed through the window of her home, in Nilin.

It's sad to see people justifying this soldiers action in any way. No human being should be treated like this.

Israeli cowards. Soldiers who act like this are a disgrace to humanity.

@waynekovic101 its obvious you're a young schoolboy full of immaturity and ignorance.

If you were educated and also not a raghead you wouldn't approve the genocide of any race, creed,nation or group.
