The soldiers were not trying to arrest these men. Only bully them. They were not expecting to be hit.
The video does not leave that much room for interpretation unless you are watching on a very low resolution.
See this is the first issue I see - im arguing with someone else who calls them police, but you see them as soldiers. People can't even identify who is who.
Right now the only thing telling me this is Israel is the title of the video, and one person telling me the signs in the back are the right language.
To be fair, Hebrew only appears on signage in one area in the whole world: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hebrew_language
Arabic and Hebrew are both spoken widely across Israel and Palestine (and nowhere else, according to the previous link): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Languages_of_Israel
You can see a number of these numberplates in the video: http://www.worldlicenseplates.com/jpglps/AS_ISRA_GI.jpg
You can see these uniforms in the video: https://www.pinterest.jp/pin/192599321547629934/
It's good to stay sceptical to the last, but you are taking it a bit too far in this case.
Thanks for that information - learnt something new today about where it is spoken and signage.
I've updated a few of my other comments- can't deny this is IDF (patches are covered by look similar) but date and full story are up for context. Regardless, pretty damming evidence of conduct against any civilian population.
