"One of the two assailants was shot dead by troops. The other was shot and wounded. Eleven minutes later, as the wounded man, Abd Elfatah Ashareef, 21, lay on the ground incapacitated, Azaria shot him in the head with an assault rifle."

And the verdict was manslaughter?

While Israelis will tell you that their justice system treats non-Israelis like everyone else, that's not true. Were a Palestinian to have committed the same offence against an Israeli soldier, the charge and conviction would've been murder.

An apartheid nation has the same criminal laws for everyone, ostensibly. But what happens is that the law is APPLIED differently depending on the perpetrator and victim. For example, under South African apartheid if a black South African killed a white South African, the charge and sentence would be more severe. Vice versa if a white killed a black.

This verdict is an example of Israeli discrimination against Palestinians. It's a form of apartheid.
