In May of 2002 CBS interviewed Israeli Soldiers who conscientiously refused to serve in the occupied/stolen land in Palestine. They drafted a letter to explain their grievances.
January 2002, a group of Israeli reserve officers and combat soldiers returned from their duty in the Gaza strip, and drafted a letter that would change they way Israelis conceive the military control of the occupied territories. This document came to be known as the Combatant's Letter:
* We, reserve combat officers and soldiers of the Israel Defense Forces, who were raised upon the principles of Zionism, self-sacrifice and giving to the people of Israel and to the State of Israel, who have always served in the front lines, and who were the first to carry out any mission in order to protect the State of Israel and strengthen it.
* We, combat officers and soldiers who have served the State of Israel for long weeks every year, in spite of the dear cost to our personal lives, have been on reserve duty in the Occupied Territories, and were issued commands and directives that had nothing to do with the security of our country, and that had the sole purpose of perpetuating our control over the Palestinian people.
* We, whose eyes have seen the bloody toll this Occupation exacts from both sides,
* We, who sensed how the commands issued to us in the Occupied Territories destroy all the values that we were raised upon,
* We, who understand now that the price of Occupation is the loss of IDF's human character and the corruption of the entire Israeli society,
* We, who know that the Territories are not a part of Israel, and that all settlements are bound to be evacuated,
* We hereby declare that we shall not continue to fight this War of the Settlements.
* We shall not continue to fight beyond the 1967 borders in order to dominate, expel, starve and humiliate an entire people.
* We hereby declare that we shall continue serving the Israel Defense Force in any mission that serves Israel's defense.
The missions of occupation and oppression do not serve this purpose -- and we shall take no part in them.

More power to the men who refuse to be apart of this. More power to em. Our insane leaders lie to us all the time. They keep us fighting & saying that the threat is outer, when really it's inner. Let me tell you something, the terrorists aren't out there, they're in here! In your government! Saying acts like these encourage terrorism is BULLSHIT! It discourages terrorism! And that's the ONLY reason to get sour about this! Is if you support terrorism!
If you're wondering why you don't see stories like this one on your national news, it's because the enormous majority of news organizations are zionist owned.
There is a 96% probability your news is coming to you from pro-Israel sources.
No DakotaMutated, Jews don't belong in Israel. And it is not because I am Arab, Christian, or any religion...is simply because that thinking is the same fascist idea of Nazi Germany...if the holocaust caused your people some much pain...Then why are you acting the same way towards the Arabs? "Arabs don't belong in Israel" / "Jews don't belong in the Aryan society"....hum...does that look alike? These people are humans, Despite our religion, our nationality...WE ARE ONE AND THE SAME
You want to be Mossad eh?? The guys who will kill ANYONE to achieve their goal. I bet you did no hear about Mossad caught in GAZA pretending to be terrorists and shooting police? Or maybe it was MOSSAD that bombed Tel Aviv and then blamed it on Palestinians? A real nice bunch those Mossad guys...
