Women in Israel are coming out.

[jodevizes]

After that dreadful picture of a women in the Israeli Army posing with a Palestinian prisoner, another has come out to talk about what really goes on in the "most moral of all armies'.

Having seen that program about Palestinians trying to cross the border to get hospital treatment it makes sense. It is not good, but makes sense.

By treating Palestinians this way, it is no wonder they behave badly.

Brilliant article. I'm really glad some Isrealis are speaking out.

Excellent article. There are many people protesting internationally about the treatment of the Palestinians, but change will only come when more Israeli's speak out. I have nothing but admiration for groups like 'Breaking the Silence'. They are amongst a few who are standing up to their government (others include Rabbis for Human Rights) & are incredibly brave as they risk being ostracised from their families & communities by speaking out.

Did a little to lift my mood after the awful Panorama 'Death in the Med' - which managed to show a completly one sided version of events- omitted to mention that the blockade of Gaza is illegal, boarding the activists boat in international waters was illegal, shooting 9 activists dead was skipped over and the activists fight-back was portrayed as the premediatated actions of terrorists. I was & have complained to the BBC.
