    Even if we were to imagine for a moment there were militants and terrorists among them, is that kind of treatment morally justified? I doubt so.

      The morality becomes less important the more your mortality is affected.

      They are not stripped for punishment or fun, but because any of them could be a walking clamore mine.

      I dont condone the actions of the IDF. I think their current strategy is ineffective and counterproductive in the long run. However, actions like this are easily understood if you put yourself in the shoes of a soldier forced to be in that situation under orders.
