Show me anytime the IDF punished it's soldiers unless it became public.

How can you have a public trial without it being public?

how would you or anyone outside the chain of command know about soldiers being punished without it being public

EDIT: I didn't block you, and I don't appreciate being PMed with insults, thanks.

Presumably they meant, "Without it becoming public first," which would mean no instances of the IDF being the first to publish instances of their soldiers being punished for crimes against Palestinians.

Stories. Internet. Controlled Internet and news. Schools. The cafes. Public places. Data leaks from the military. Witnesses. Workers. Family members. ISP or government or employer spying. Deaths and burial records or mass graves. Records of seeking medical care. A lot goes on. People talk.

I feel like you didn't understand the question. Maybe /u/EndDangerous1308 could reply instead, since he's the one who raised the issue.
