Azaria prosecutor thanks appeals court for focusing on military ethics

Lt. Col. Nadav Weissman, the chief prosecutor in the Azaria trial, says two courts, composed of eight different judges, all found Azaria guilty.

He praises the military appeals court for making clear the importance of ethics in Sunday’s ruling, “especially the purity of arms,” an Israeli military term for the imperative not to misuse the lethal power given to soldiers.
