Tel Aviv, February 3 (RHC)-- Three Israeli military officers are being disciplined over their involvement in the January death of a 78-year-old Palestinian American man in the West Bank.  Two were removed from their positions, and the third will be formally censured.  None have been criminally charged. 

Omar Assad died of a stress-induced heart attack after being bound and gagged and held in a cold construction site by the Israeli soldiers who detained Assad at a checkpoint while he drove home.
