Would The PA Do The Same?

So an Israeli soldier commits a stupid crime and she gets held responsible for her action. For some reason, I don't believe that the PA "security" force would have held a Palestinian responsible for a similar action.

If the allegations are true, then the IDF soldier should be, and will be, held accountable. Forcing someone to perform an action at gunpoint, even one as simple as drinking, is wrong.

It's good to see that someone in the Middle East is willing to enforce their laws, regardless of the religion or race of the victim.

It's a lesson that the Palestinians need to learn before they can really aspire to statehood.
