Former IDF military advocate general Maj. Gen. Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi, who was released to house arrest last week after being detained over the Sde Teiman video leak, was hospitalized on Sunday morning after medics were called to her home over what was later confirmed to have been a suicide attempt.
On Sunday night, Police Commissioner Danny Levy confirmed that Tomer-Yerushalmi had been hospitalized following an attempt to end her own life. "Her life isn’t rosy,” he said of the disgraced prosecutor, after a protester was detained outside of her home.
The police chief also addressed the allegations against Tomer-Yerushalmi, saying that “if she committed the offense, this affects how the army looks, how soldiers behave. We send our kids to an organization where they should be sure that nobody is leaking things, and that’s why we’re probing it,” he added.
If they’re leaking illegal abuse of prisoners, then they are doing the right thing.
You seem to have this naive view where any leaks are a bad thing. That’s simply not true.
Didn’t say she did anything wrong, made no judgement of any sort. I asked how any given government should treat leakers. Are you saying it’s OK for a government to forgive security breaches in some cases?
You ignored the question to get on your moral soapbox. Funny enough, your statement would rule out any possibility of obtaining a security clearance.
You seem to not understand that government officials and soldiers who are sworn to secrecy do not get to make the call on what they should leak. They do not get to make the call on what is illegal or immoral.
So, answer the question.
