Is it safe to assume that had he not been an American citizen there would be no trouble and the great U.S leaders would continue to approve of more collective punishment?

U.S. says "profoundly troubled" by Israeli police's beating of American citizen - Xinhua | English.news.cn

Although, as we know from the USS Liberty and general diplomatic behavior from our great 'ally', it may scarcely matter.

Our leaders didn't care about folks in Benghazi.............now they do. I guess it is the next "story" to be blown up to hate Israel. Video was cut up too. Didn't show what the kid did before. Probably nothing...........lol

That was an American teen unjustly beaten. Israel needs to be taken to task over it. If it were your son and the local police whooped up on him you would want the cops held accountable. I know you would. You're a good dad.
This isn't the first American who has fallen victim to Israel's heavy handed tactics. If it happened in France or England I would be equally outraged.

This crap happens in the US everyday of the week and the government does care in the least. The only thing that may tick .gov off is that someone other than themselves got to lay a beat down on a US "consumer".

Lot of US folks going to become terrorists now. We don't know the real story just a quick video. I wouldn't let my kid even go over there unless he was with a unit and toting a 16.

Maybe no one should be beating up handcuffed people?

Only reason this is all over the news is liberals love the Pal's.............and hate Israel. Just another "pivot".

The perpetual police haters are conflicted with their Israeli obsession.

Like the prev poster said it happens here everyday and nobody gives a rip. Why do you now?

You don't know what he was doing to get that beating either. Maybe he was beating too? I guess that doesn't matter. I don't like to see anybody taken to task but sometimes they do need to be............but the media blows it up to get folks wound out. Folks getting killed in Benghazi........eh who cares. Youtube video........

Most cops are good guys............I went to high school with the police chief. No obsession...........common sense.
