Nine members of the Israeli Defense Force tell why they refused to serve in the West Bank and Gaza. The individual choices and collective activism of these "refuseniks" have generated intense debate in Israel and the international community. Dedicated tothe welfare of their country and its cultural heritage, they outline their concerns for the future of Israel. As they tell their stories of personal struggle, they also raise the disturbing and highly controversial issue of human rights abuses in the occupied territories. These personal accounts offer new perspectives on some entrenched ideas about the situation in the Middle East. This testimony is essential background for a full understanding of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
