Zeev was detained after a preliminary interrogation. Police now attempt to charge him with criminal assault for shooting two Arabs during the Hebron riots. The court so far remains skeptical and leans toward self-defense scenario. The court is under pressure to arrange an exemplary prosecution of Braude to warn other settlers against using their weapons, even in self-defense.
The murderous rodef government created the atmosphere in which Jewish settlers are afraid to use their personal firearms even in clear and present danger from Arabs because almost every case of wounding an Arab is prosecuted. Instead of the self-evident presumption of Arab guilt—those people have fought us for decades—Israeli courts presume them innocent like doves. Naturally, most Jews are unable to prove they were attacked because the only witnesses around are lying Arabs.
Zeev Braude got thirty-six stitches on his head. His jawbone is dislocated from biting an Arab’s hand. When Arabs beat Braude’s head against a stone, the hand he held in his mouth amortized the kicks and Zeev survived. He can only consume liquid food in jail.
To Israeli police, this is not sufficient proof of self-defense.
Zeev Braude is a victim of Israeli leftists rather than the Arabs
