Often, violent behavior or harassment from a soldier is dismissed
by the military as unacceptable acts by individuals termed, "rotten
apples." In this study, the author argues that this dismissal is
unsatisfactory and that there is an urgent need to look at the
(mis)behavior of soldiers from a structural point of view. When
soldiers serve as an occupational force, they find themselves in a
particular situation influenced by structural circumstances that
heavily influence their behavior and moral decision-making. This
study focuses on young Israeli men and their experiences as combat
soldiers in the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), particularly those
who served in the "Occupied Palestinian Territories" (OPT) during
the "Al Aqsa Intifada," which broke out in 2000. In describing the
soldiers' circumstances, especially focusing on space, the study
shows how processes of numbing on different levels influence the
(moral) behavior of these soldiers.
