YouTube video uploaded by B'Tselem shows an IDF officer yelling at a Palestinian man, cocking his gun, and pointing it at him during an IDF operation in the West Bank. By Haaretz Tags: Palestinians West Bank IDF
A video uploaded to YouTube on Wednesday showed an IDF officer pointing a loaded gun at an unarmed Palestinian in the West Bank village of Beit Ummar last month.
According to B'Tselem, a human rights organization that uploaded the video, on June 18 IDF forces came to arrest a youth from the village for allegedly throwing stones when his cousin stopped the IDF officer to try to prevent the arrest.
The video shows the IDF officer, a First Lieutenant, shouting and pushing the Palestinian man and then immediately cocking his loaded gun into the man's face. When the man continued to fight with him, the IDF officer again pointed the gun at him. http://www.haaretz.com/news/diplomacy-defense/watch-idf-officer-points-loaded-gun-at-unarmed-palestinian-1.374285
