Why the soldiers? They aren't the ones that made the decision. Sure, if they committed war crimes themselves, but for anything else you have to address the people that actually were responsible. Prosecuting soldiers would be futile and certainly no justice. There was a lot of media propaganda to make the war popular. It wasn't at first but it didn't even take half a year until people ate it up. Liberal, conservative, didn't even matter. It was scary to see how quickly people were manipulated. It had large support in the population. People should stop and reflect what made them support the war, which messages and by whom. That is the responsibility they can take here and it would be much more constructive than putting the blame on soldiers... Israel citizens might have a better excuse to develop weapons than most other countries, so I don't see the point. Not an excuse, but at least an explanation.
