5.0 out of 5 starsPowerful stories
By Steffi on October 21, 2012
Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
This is a "must-read" book for anyone wanting to understand the effects of the Israeli occupation on not only the Palestinians but on the soldiers whose job it is to enforce that occupation. These are moving, powerful and disturbing testimonies.

5.0 out of 5 starsAn important book for anyone who wants know about the price of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict
By Amit on September 20, 2012
Format: Hardcover
Breaking the silence has been collecting testimonies of IDF soldiers for over six years, and this book is a selection of testimonies from 2000-2010, covering the bulk of the latest round of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, in the aftermath of the breakup of the Oslo accords.
This is a one-of-a-kind collection of first-hand evidence on what Israeli soldiers actually do every day, paid for by the US taxpayer (among others) and how they think of themselves while doing it. Your view of the conflict will never be the same.

This is a difficult, but important read for every Jewish person living in, or outside of Israel. It is critically important that we understand what is actually happening on the ground in the occupied terriotories.

4.0 out of 5 starsexposing the harsh reality of israels cruel and inhumane occupation
By Amazon Customer on February 28, 2014
Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
these are brave ex soldiers who are telling the truth of what happens during israels military incursions into Palestinian territories, which are happening with increasing frequency and more and more brazenly.

the efforts of the authors of this book, to expose these untoward practices, must be commended. Israel has already dismissed these testimonies as false, but the level of consistency in the testimonials in this book, speaks for itself, and leaves no doubt about the extent and premedidation of these policies. please support breaking the silence, who authored this book. please buy this this book and let everyone see the real face of the monsters who call themselves the most moral army in the world

is it moral for soldiers to deliberately and gleefully, destroy olive trees, which are the sole source of income of destitute Palestinian farmers??

Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
This is a book full of important statements from the ones that actually took part in a conflict with no winners. As such books often are, it becomes a bit boring to read, but it is still important, very important

5.0 out of 5 starsReflects the experience of Israeli soldiers and the their conflicted feelings about the occupation of Palestine.
By Noreen A. Thompsen on May 22, 2013
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
Recently heard one of the soldiers speak locally who assisted with compiling this testimony of Israeli soldiers for the organization "Breaking the Silence". His courage and compassion for his fellow human beings came through loud and clear. Our WILPF chapter purchased two copies for local libraries. This book is about healing and is an excellent resource for any veteran who has experienced active duty during war or occupation.

4.0 out of 5 starsDefinitely Worth Reading
By R. Doherty on January 14, 2013
Format: Hardcover
These testimonies by Israeli soldiers reflect the often harsh and brutal policies of the Israeli occupation. Every time a Palestinian is injured or killed, the Israeli government claims self-defense; the facts show otherwise. Palestinian farmers and fishermen can be killed for simply trying to eke out a simple living under occupation. Israeli soldiers enforce a brutal apartheid system to protect so-called "settlers" who live on stolen Palestinian land in contravention of international law. It's unfortunate that more people in the U.S. know little about the reality of the occupation. Perhaps if more people knew the truth, the Israeli Defense Forces would have to account for their actions.

I applaud the courage of these former IDF soldiers in speaking out. Surely this is a very difficult thing to do in Israel.
