Hundreds of Israeli soldiers, called up to take part in
controversial campaigns like the 1982 invasion of Lebanon or
policing duties in the Palestinian territories today, have refused
orders. Many of these 'refuseniks' have faced prison sentences
rather than take part in what they regard as an unjust occupation
in defence of illegal Jewish settlements. In this inspirational
book, Peretz Kidron, himself a refusenik, gives us the stories,
experiences, viewpoints, even poetry, of these courageous
conscripts who believe in their country, but not in its actions
beyond its borders. We read about the cautious, even embarrassed,
response of the authorities. And we see the wider implications of
the philosophy of selective refusal - which is not the same thing
as pacifism -- for conscientious citizens in every country where
conscription still exists. Here is a real model for the peace
movement in Israel and worldwide.
