A largely unreported story from IsraelNationalNews.com, 17/7/08:
... harsh questions ...are arising from the exchange which took place ...the bodies were received in a severely-damaged state .....
Former IDF Medical Corps and Chief Military Rabbinate officials ...[were] shocked by what they saw ....
Rabbi Yisrael Weiss, former Chief Rabbi of the IDF, who was present during the transfer of the fallen soldiers yesterday, said that "the verification process yesterday was very slow, because, if we thought the enemy was cruel to the living and the dead, we were surprised, when we opened the caskets, to discover just how cruel. And I'll leave it at that."
Former IDF Chief Medical Officer Brig. Gen. (reserve) Dr. Hezi Levi noted this morning that only extensive procedures could verify the exact series of events following the soldier's capture, including whether or not a gunshot wound Regev received to the head was caused by terrorists' "confirming the kill" of the fallen IDF soldier.
