以色列军方发言人部队前成员阿耶莱特·克罗伊泽周一表示，军方操纵了关于其在加沙地带和被占约旦河西岸行动的真相，并描述了她自己在塑造发布给媒体的信息中所扮演的角色。
A former member of the Israeli army spokesperson’s unit said Monday that the military manipulated the truth about its operations in Gaza and the occupied West Bank, describing her own role in shaping information released to the media.
克罗伊泽说，无辜巴勒斯坦人被贴上“恐怖分子”标签，军方声明经过剪裁，旨在增强公众支持并为军队行动争取国际合法性。
Ayelet Kroizer said innocent Palestinians were labeled “terrorists” and military statements were tailored to strengthen public support and secure international legitimacy for army operations.
她是在美社交媒体平台X上的一篇帖子中发表上述言论的，该帖子宣布她获任命为“打破沉默”组织发言人。该以色列组织发布前士兵关于军队在被占巴勒斯坦领土上滥用职权的证词。
She made the remarks in a post on the US social media platform X announcing her appointment as spokesperson for Breaking the Silence, an Israeli organization that publishes former soldiers’ testimonies about military abuses in the occupied Palestinian territories.
“在服役期间，我操纵发布给媒体的细节。我看到‘恐怖分子’一词甚至被冠在无辜巴勒斯坦人头上，看到声明如何根据目标受众及其设定目标进行剪裁，”她写道。
“During my service, I manipulated the details released to the media. I saw how the word ‘terrorist’ was attached even to innocent Palestinians and how statements were tailored to the target audience and the objective set for it,” she wrote.
克罗伊泽表示，她的工作不仅让她接触到约旦河西岸和加沙地带的状况，还让她看到军队选择如何向公众呈现这些状况。
Kroizer said her work exposed her not only to conditions in the West Bank and Gaza but also to how the army chose to present them to the public.
她描述了军方发言人部队对公众对事件认知的广泛控制，称其像公关公司一样处理真相，而非像一个对公众负责的机构。
She described the military spokesperson’s extensive control over the public’s understanding of events, saying it handled the truth like a public relations agency rather than an institution accountable to the public.
她说，该部队面对以色列国内受众的既定目标是增强公众对军队的信心，并补充说“公众的知情权充其量只是次要的”。面对国际受众，目标是强化并扩大军事行动的合法性。“在这里，代价同样是真相，”她写道。
The unit’s stated objective when addressing Israelis was to strengthen public confidence in the army, she said, adding “the public’s right to know was secondary at best.”For international audiences, the objective was to strengthen and expand the legitimacy of military operations. “Here, too, the price was the truth,” she wrote.
克罗伊泽还描述了报告大规模伤亡的声明后，如何例行公事地表达遗憾。
Kroizer also described how statements reporting mass casualties were followed by routine expressions of regret.
“我学会了如何报告单次袭击造成数十人死亡，并自动加上我们遗憾对无关人员造成伤害。那是我服役的常态，”她说。
“I learned how to report dozens of deaths in a single strike and automatically add that we regret any harm to uninvolved people. That was the routine of my service,” she said.
“我从未擅长在不公面前保持沉默，但我却被要求为其做公关。”克罗伊泽说，她在极端正统派社区长大，三年前放弃了兵役豁免，在战争期间应征入伍。“我入伍是为了参与我当时认为的保卫国家，”她写道。
“I had never been good at staying silent in the face of injustice, but here I was being asked to do PR for it.”Kroizer said she grew up in the ultra-Orthodox community and waived her military exemption three years ago to enlist during the war. “I enlisted to take part in what I believed at the time was defending the country,” she wrote.
她说，从未想过在完成服役后，自己会加入“打破沉默”组织，而不是去旅行或开始学业。
She said she had never imagined that after completing her service she would join Breaking the Silence rather than travel or begin her studies.
该组织在X平台发帖欢迎她的任命，称是时候将关于占领的真相带给公众了。克罗伊泽在帖子结尾敦促其他战争期间服役的人发声。
The organization welcomed her appointment in a post on X, saying it was time to bring the truth about the occupation to the public. Kroizer ended her post by urging others who served during the war to speak out.
“所以我不会保持沉默。如果你在战争期间服过役，也不要保持沉默。”加沙卫生部的数据显示，自2023年10月以来，以色列在加沙的战争已造成超过7.4万名巴勒斯坦人死亡，17.5万多人受伤。战争还摧毁了加沙约90%的民用基础设施。
“So I will not stay silent. If you served during the war, don’t stay silent either.”Since October 2023, Israel's war in Gaza has killed more than 74,000 Palestinians and wounded over 175,000 others, figures from Gaza's Health Ministry showed. The war has also destroyed around 90% of Gaza’s civilian infrastructure.
