A mole or a victim?

Is she a ‘mole’ as leading newspaper Yediot Ahronot called her in a headline splashed across its front page today, or a victim of Israel’s oppressive, outdated censorship laws? It’s just possible that Anat Kamm is both.

The case of the ex-soldier who allegedly stole 2,000 IDF documents – some of them extremely sensitive – and gave them to a reporter for Ha’aretz, has riveted the country, even though until today, Israelis could only read about from foreign news sources. If you haven’t read about it yet, you can do so here.

As the case unfolds, none of the sides involved – Kamm, the army, the Shin Bet, Ha’aretz – are looking very attractive, but if what’s being reported is true, it’s Kamm who comes out smelling the worst.

    2. She ought to be placed on trial and jailed.

    Naturally as political correctness is the law these days in Israel as it acts like the diaspora Jew versus the Israeli, nothing will happen.

    Israel weakens further.

    3. She is a disgrace to the Jewish people and Israel.
    The big questions remain:
    Who gave her access to these sensitive files?
    and
    Why did she do this?
    If she is proven guilty, she should be given the harshest sentence
    Israel has in its legal system.
