THEY WERE THIS CLOSE TO HANGING UP HIS PICTURES WITH “WANTED” ON THEM
Rank: First Sergeant
Unit: Paratroopers Reconnaissance Battalion
period: 2016

We were [there] during the olive harvest, when Palestinians come to harvest their olives and settlers tend to come and disturb them from harvesting and mess with their agricultural crops and trees.

What’s your role in that situation?To remove them, like, prevent friction.

Remove who?The settlers.

And how do you do that?[You have to] tell them. I have an amazing story from the harvest: there was a harvest, and some guys from Yitzhar came to disturb the people harvesting. The sniper team was called up to get rid of the settlers. The settlers refused to leave and surrounded the team commander, about six of them, and he cocked his weapon in the air. It was like “If you don’t fuck off right now, I’ll put a bullet through you,” to the settlers. They were violent toward him, and I’m pretty sure that one of them punched him in the face. And then that team commander was well known in Yitzhar, like, they were this close to hanging up his pictures with “Wanted” on them; he was targeted.
