"On 2 April's morning went Abu S. to graze with his flock on his village's land near the settlement Otniel. Around Otniel hundreds of dunams that settlers with the help of IOF are preventing Palestinians to reach. Here is one example of what happens when an old shepherds, in his 60's went to graze with..."

Actually it seems as if the IDF guy wa trying to save the sheep from abuse!!
I was REALLY PO’d when I saw the headline. I thought they were talking about German Shepherd dogs being abused.
I feel much better after having read the piece.
Who really knows what went on there? I couldn’t tell if Abu was sixty or not. But that wasn’t a lamb that was grabbed by the leg and that wasn’t enough abuse to get my keffiyeh all in a bunch!
They look large and well fed.
I wouldn’t put it past the lefty types to stage some bogus incident. The video of the IDF soldiers “throwing rocks at shepherds” doesn’t show the shepherds or the sheep, just purported soldiers throwing rocks at something, while someone off camera exclaims excitedly in Arabic and bad English that they are throwing them at shepherds.
There’s a camera at the ready, filming a sweet lil ol shepherd out with his lambs? And all of a sudden some soldiers show up?
I’m incredulous.
Most likely, the cameraman told the shepherd to go over the disputed boundary, knowing that the IDF would have to react, and planning to film it all.
Watched half of it. Saw a man in black robe asked to remove one article of clothing, patted down by armed man in fatigues.
Saw one sheep pulled backwards by hind leg and let go.
Shocking abuse, oh what tender sensibilities. Oh what gentle, gentle people.
We all know how to search and post pictures of Palestinian and Arab atrocities so why bother?
If you’d like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

All I see is a guy walking his sheep. Crossed the wrong road, was asked and complied to cross to the other side, like the chicken did looking for his egg. I thought the IDF shot the lamb and ate it. I like lamb. Unlike my President, I've never eaten dog, so I don't know nor will I ever if I'd enjoy it as he did.
Since Eleutheria5 posted a boring youtube video, I'll refer freepers to Ann Barnhardt, who I often agree with and would be popular here if I or anyone else posted youtubes.
Looked more like an ewe, anyway. Guess the you-tuber figured he might as well hang a post for a lamb as an ewe, or maybe he didn’t know the difference.
Send my regards to Rav Simcha!
Velcher Rav Simcha?
Yeah, not getting into goat or sheep gender. Nothing happened in the silly video. Check out the one I linked
Can you trust any claims from B’Tselem?
This is B’Tzelem? Figures.
Looks familiar, but don’t know him. If I see him, I’ll send your regards.
