In the early afternoon of 29 November last year, several Palestinian boys descended on to their street in the occupied West Bank, where they often played together.
Minutes later, two of them lay dead from gunshots fired by Israeli soldiers - Basil, 15, and eight-year-old Adam.
As part of an investigation into the conduct of Israel’s security forces in the West Bank, which has been under military occupation for more than half a century, the BBC has pieced together what happened on the day the two boys were killed.
Mobile phone and CCTV footage, information about the movements of Israel’s military, witness testimony and detailed investigation of the scene, including taking measurements, combine to reveal evidence suggesting serious human rights violations.
There’s no evidence presented in this article this was perpetrated by the Israeli government and not just some soldiers.
Just because the killing wasn’t explicitly ordered by the Israeli government? Despite them being there because of the government? Despite targeting civilians being a recurring theme of this invasion?
Until Israel starts putting soldiers on trial, these are government-sponsored murders
You need to watch some testimonies by repenting Israeli occupation forces. It is pretty much cultural at this point

When US soldiers killed women and children in Vietnam, that WAS the US government. Same thing here
True, but the following paragraphs from the article are telling …
Right, that’s the tacit approval I mentioned in my original comment, they need to prosecute Israeli soldiers and civilians who break the law and change that perception.
