The Jerusalem Post (via The Jawa Report) tells that a British website has published the names of soldiers who took part in Operation Cast Lead, who are now in danger:

The IDF has warned 200 soldiers and officers whose names appeared on a British website as war criminals for their involvement in Operation Cast Lead, about the possibility that they will be targeted by anti-Israel and possibly terrorist elements.

[...]

The names of the 200 officers and soldiers were posted with their personal details on a website in November under the headline “Israel War Criminals,” for their involvement in the operation in the Gaza Strip two years ago. The website featured names, photographs, ranks, positions, birthdates, identity numbers and addresses of people who it claimed had played key roles in the operation.

According to an investigation launched by the IDF Operations Directorate, some of the information was obtained via Facebook. Other information is believed to have come from parts of the Interior Ministry’s Population Registry which was leaked to the Internet several years ago. The IDF, The Jerusalem Post has learned, is also still investigating the possibility that a soldier still in military service was involved in leaking the information.

Since the list was published, some of the soldiers on it have received letters from an Islamic center in Spain accusing them of war crimes.

“The threat varies,” a senior officer involved in the ongoing investigation said this week. “On the one hand, it could be hate mail, but it also could be a letter bomb.”

This is truly sick. The worst part, I suspect, is that Britain's authorities will do nothing to get rid of that site, but in any case, the damage has been done. And it may have all been committed by an interloper in the army. That's what comes when insufficient policies are drafted against criminals who endanger lives.
