Looks like someone in high places read my blog the other day…. and took note of my remarks in red. Or they might have read this post…
For whatever reason, the following is the update on the situation;
2nd polygraph finds commander lied about shooting of bound Palestinian
The Israel Defense Forces officer accused of ordering a soldier under his command to shoot a bound and blindfolded Palestinian detainee failed his second polygraph test on Monday, after having passed the first test in a private institute last week.
The results of Monday’s lie-detector test, held under the auspices of the military police, prove that Lieutenant colonel Omri Fruberg, commanding officer of IDF regiment 71, lied in his testimony, and suggest he did in fact give order to open fire at the Palestinian detainee.
A video report of the above can be seen HERE

No, I’m afraid it does nothing of the sort. Personally, and outside a court of law, I believe this SOB is as guilty as the day is long. BUT there is a very good reason while lie detector ‘evidence’ is inadmissable in any respectable court of law – they are not reliable. They are faulty to the extreme, and are about as useful at gleaning true information as torture is.
