Observe Israel definitely not being an Apartheid state.

See this is the first issue I see - im arguing with someone else who calls them police, but you see them as soldiers. People can't even identify who is who.

Right now the only thing telling me this is Israel is the title of the video, and one person telling me the signs in the back are the right language.

To be fair, Hebrew only appears on signage in one area in the whole world: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hebrew_language

Arabic and Hebrew are both spoken widely across Israel and Palestine (and nowhere else, according to the previous link): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Languages_of_Israel

You can see a number of these numberplates in the video: http://www.worldlicenseplates.com/jpglps/AS_ISRA_GI.jpg

You can see these uniforms in the video: https://www.pinterest.jp/pin/192599321547629934/

It's good to stay sceptical to the last, but you are taking it a bit too far in this case.

Thanks for that information - learnt something new today about where it is spoken and signage.

I've updated a few of my other comments- can't deny this is IDF (patches are covered by look similar) but date and full story are up for context. Regardless, pretty damming evidence of conduct against any civilian population.
