A second indictment has been handed down to two Israeli Defence Force (IDF) soldiers accusing them of asking a 9-year-old Palestinian boy to open packages that they suspected contained explosives during the 2008 Operation Cast Lead. The earlier indictment accused two other soldiers of looting. Whilst this crime is insidiously cold, one must cling onto the fact that at least they are being tried for the crime as some small sliver of a white lining.
