Former IDF Sniper Tells U.S. Congress His Unit “Destroyed Palestinian Lives”
September 11, 2026
“IT WASN’T PROTECTING ISRAEL. IT WAS CONTROLLING PALESTINIANS.”
Speaking before members of the U.S. Congress, former IDF sniper and Executive Director of Breaking the Silence Nadav Weiman delivered a damning testimony that shatters decades of Western state propaganda: “It wasn’t protecting Israel. It was controlling Palestinians.”
Shared by the Embassy of Palestine in Cyprus (@embassy_palestine_in_cyprus ), Weiman’s testimony laid bare how military units operate in the occupied West Bank and Gaza, not to secure safety, but to systematically terrorize, disrupt, and destroy Palestinian livelihoods to enforce permanent occupation.
This is a man who wore the uniform, held the rifle, and walked into strangers’ bedrooms at 3am. He’s not speculating. He’s confessing.
When the soldiers themselves start telling the truth, the only people still calling it “security” are the ones who don’t want to hear it.
