As reported in Solomonia:
Fiddling Past the Checkpoint
Honest Reporting has the final word on the horrible human rights abuse perpetrated by Israeli stormtroopers.
This month, soldiers at the Beit Iba checkpoint… ordered a Palestinian to open his violin case and play for them while the lines behind him grew.
Oh, the humanity!
You can bear witness to this atrocity by viewing the video here. (You may need to choose a location, then click again to view the video.) WITNESS! …a man play his violin. SEE! …a guy thumb through his paperwork. BOGGLE! …as another soldier chats on his cell-phone. MARVEL! …at no one take much notice of this oozing horror.
And, as it turns out, the soldiers merely asked the man to open the case. He began playing on his own, and when they were done checking him out they told him to stop.
I don’t know… Maybe if it was some of that atonal modern music he was playing, or bluegrass… But then, that would be torture for the soldiers, not him.
