On Monday, July 29, Israeli Military Police detained several IDF reserve soldiers serving at the Sde Teiman base. The soldiers are suspected of torturing and raping Palestinian detainees. Outrage ensued among prominent figures on the Israeli right, and protesters rushed to the southern base. The following speech by Eliyahu Yosian is a clear indication of the rift between the Israeli right and Israeli liberal Zionists and the real prospect of future internecine bloodshed within Jewish Israeli society.
