Frontline IDF Soldier: "The Villages Were Empty Except for Hizbullah"


[Middle East Journal] Michael J. Totten - An Israeli soldier in a long-range patrol unit said: "These whole villages, they were empty, just filled with Hizbullah terrorists....Israel left them standing. Many of our soldiers were killed because of that, so Israel wouldn't be blamed after the war for war crimes and destroying civilian houses." "No civilians were walking around South Lebanon. I know. I was in their villages. In their houses. Anyone who was there was definitely working for Hizbullah or working as a Hizbullah fighter....I never saw one woman or any children in Lebanon. I was going in and out for the whole time since the day when the soldiers were kidnapped."
