An IDF spokesperson said Saturday night that the army “condemns” protests that were held outside the home of Brigadier General Nitzan Alon, commander of the Judea and Samaria Division. “The IDF rejects totally any attempt to connect officers with political motives,” the spokesperson said, adding that “the protests outside Alon's home are disgraceful, and we wonder at the motives of organizers. Any complaints that the protestors have can be dealt with through normative channels without interfering with anyone's personal life.”
The protest took place after Alon wrote a letter calling for soldiers from Judea and Samaria to be investigated and interviewed to insure they won't try and prevent the IDF from bulldozing Jewish homes in the area. Participants of the protest said the general was unfairly discriminating against soldiers based on the location their hometown.
