They put "cruel" in quotation marks because it's IDF's framing, distancing themselves from it. What you're looking at is them 110% reporting what the IDF said without injecting themselves into it. It's what neutral reporting looks like. You read that article when you want to know what the IDF said -- which is, TBH, your morbid curiosity and not my fault. Read something else.

Speaking of: Go back and actually read the article that I linked, as you didn't, or you wouldn't have written what you wrote. Notice something? The exact same kind of neutrality: Reporting on what can be seen on videos that have appeared on the net. Words that they used in that neutral analysis, without quotation marks, include "brutal" and "abuse". With the IDF as perpetrators. Because those are indeed objectively correct terms, thus neutral, describing those videos.

If you think that journalism is only valid if it takes sides when reporting facts then you are, I'm afraid, quite lost indeed. Neutrality is invaluable precisely because they can let the crimes of the IDF stand there, uncommented, and it *stings*. The absence of narrativation is a power in itself, and they're always quite good when it comes to including relevant context. But yes Haaretz is the other Israeli newspaper with dignity.
