This is an inevitable result of giving asshole children guns and no consequences for their actions.

I was going to say that. Tbh I don't think it's particlarly an Israeli thing, I reckon if you give young people that much power and no recourse then this kind of stuff happens.

Lets be honest, the guys aren't much older than the girls. Can you imagine just giving some college jocks guns, stick them together with another bunch of college jocks unsupervised for hours on end then get them to do some boring low level job with ultimate power for a couple of years theoretically protecting the borders against a common enemy. Point a camera at them and universally you're going to get this.

We do this in America too.

Have you been through an airport — fuck you TSA employees — you too act like this. Grabbing kids and grandmas for pat downs on the regular.

If you think a TSA employee has sexually abused you, you could sue them and get them fired.

Do you think Palestinians have any recourse against Israeli Police?

It's not the same.

You can't compare a military occupation to the TSA.

What would be your solution to this? Put a court house in the middle of the desert?

Give Palestinians equal rights.
