This Israeli Soldier Fought In Gaza. Now He Speaks Out

Ariel Bernstein is a former IDF combat soldier who fought in Gaza in 2014. Now he campaigns for peace and against the occupation. This is one of the most fascinating interviews I've done - he tells me about his experience in Gaza, about dehumanisation, Israel's wartime propaganda - and where this is all heading.

    "If the US goverment is serious, it can take those proposals straight to the UN security council. It can vote with a unanimous vote 15 to nothing of the UN security council for the recognition of a Palestinian state that includes Gaza and the West Bank, that includes the demilitaralization, demobilisation of Hamas, it can win the support of Arab countries that have called for exactly that. It would win the support of the world community. So, if the US follow that logic, this war could end immediately. The chapter seven of the UN charter gives the UN security council the power to implement actions to preserve the Global Peace. This is what the US should do." - Prof. Jeffrey Sachs.

    To be fair , you need to interview an IDF Officer who has actual information , all this soldier is talking about is what he experienced it does not go to show of the mentality or the specifics , i served in the Military (Not the IDF) and i was not aware of the actual targets we attacked using drones and artillery , i was only aware of specific targets we engaged So his claim about bombing buildings in order for ground troops to feel safe is at best unsubstantiated, as proof , even today , the Israelis can simply destroy ANY building that is still standing but they don't . this at least from an outside perspective give you an understanding that they are targeting something specifc

I'm here after South Africa has taken Israel to the ICJ in the Hague, and before anything has been decided that I can see. The dehumanization of children, especially, is shocking and unacceptable. It is horrific to be sitting here at home watching the horrors of the current Gaza Strip situation. Thank you for speaking out. We need everyone we can who can speak out.

    Has HAMAS attacked any other nation other than Israel? The concept of resistance is strange to the Western World. They have historically labelled every resistance movement as terrorists; from Mau Mau in Kenya to uMkhonto We Sizwe and Nelson Mandela in South Africa.

    Unfortunately this decent person probably represents a small minority in Israel. However, I think he underplays the extent of this genocide as the population is not just being bombed and physically attacked. It is also being starved, deprived of water and denied medicines and medical assistance.

    @@alisonjoubert9960I kinda feel like he said what all pro Palestinians have known and been saying for many years. What I somehow find uncomfortable is that it becomes truth when an i$raeli voice says it or rather confirms it. There are so many layers to this interview. I feel off about it somehow.

    What he said about dehumanization is unfortunately a tactic used across the world. In Pakistan, I grew up hearing about the oppression of Kashmiri people by India. I felt so helpless and angry at the world for being silent spectators. As I grew up, I started became aware of similar horrific acts of violence my own army was committing in balochistan. I have to say, it’s very hard to see it all when you live inside a bubble and only listen to mainstream media. When the bubble finally breaks, it’s both heartbreaking and eye opening. It’s also very hard to engage reasonably with those who still live inside the bubble of lies.

    In the 1970s Israeli PM secretly met Mustafa Barzani and stated its to support for PDK (Patri Dimukrati Kurdstan). The Israelis trained some PDK members on how to place explosives on vehicles, place mines, conduct assassination attacks...etc. This is all documented by either side, My father had a book about this with evidence and pictures of many of the members being literally introduced to and trained on what's considered today as TERRORISIM because the Israelis wanted to spread as much as destabilisation in Iraq as possible.

I pray that, once their pains have healed, made peace with their traumas and properly bid their lost ones farewell, the Palestinians will have their chance for a proper, fruitful and meaningful life that they undeniably deserve.

Khalil abu Yahia was killed, alongside his wife and two daughters, in an airstrike whilst sheltering from the bombing in October. He was only 28 years old. They never met each other (only via Zoom). The tragedy was that they had hoped to have a coffee together one day, and now they never will. They saw the humanity in each other and spoke of co-existence.
