Only after a video became public was an Israeli soldier detained pending an investigation by the Israel Defense Force. The video shows him shooting an incapacitated Palestinian in the head this morning in occupied Hebron. Killing prisoners is a practice known as “confirming the kill,” in which soldiers make sure wounded Palestinians are dead by shooting them in the head. The murder of prisoners has been defended by Public Security Minister Gilad Erdan.

IDF Chief of Staff Gadi Eisenkot came under heavy criticism recently when he said that a soldier must shoot to kill perpetrators of terrorist attacks only if there is an immediate threat to human life. The world has come not to expect any IDF soldier to be disciplined for killing a Palestinian.
