Local Editor
"Israeli" brutality is of no limits as the video below proves.
A senior "Israeli" officer was filmed hitting an activist in the face with an M-16 rifle on Saturday.
In the video, posted by the International Solidarity Movement on YouTube on Sunday, Lt.-Col. Shalom Eisner is seen beating youths who took part in a pro-Palestinian bike ride in the Jordan Valley.
On Saturday, a group of some 250 activists, mostly Palestinian youths from the West Bank, went on a bike ride in the Jordan Valley in a silent protest. At a certain point, several dozens of "Israeli" soldiers stopped the activists, facing them with severe brutality.
The soldiers hit the activists and threw their bikes over a tunnel across the road.
One of the volunteers who organized the bike ride said that the soldiers were waiting for the activists and began beating them.
"Israeli" Lt.-Col. Eisner was filmed hitting one of the activists in the face with his M-16.
"We did not expect any harassment on the part of the "Israeli" soldiers," one of the activists who were on a peaceful bike ride told "Haaretz".
"The activists were beaten badly, and the officers just told us we couldn't be in that area," the activist clarified.
Four activists who sustained wounds in their faces and backs were evacuated to the hospital, while three more youths who were beaten refused to receive medical care.
In parallel, the so-called "Israeli National Union" MK Michael Ben Ari issued a response to the incident and congratulated the "Israeli" officer who hit the activists.
"Well done to the "IDF" officer who did what Bibi and Aharonovich have no brain or courage to do," Ben Ari said.
