Not so friendly soldier on Facebook!
The Israeli military and one of its soldiers are no longer “friends” after the gunner posted details of an impending West Bank raid on his Facebook page, leading to the mission being aborted, reports said on Wednesday.
The soldier, from an artillery unit, updated his page on the social networking site, saying “on Wednesday we are cleaning Qatanna, and on Thursday, God willing, going home,” army radio reported.
The soldier’s page contained details of his unit and the exact time and location of the planned sweep. The Israeli army frequently carries out raids in the occupied West Bank, detaining suspected Palestinian militants.
