JERUSALEM (AP) — Dozens of reserve soldiers from an elite Israeli intelligence unit publicly declared Friday that they refuse to operate in the Palestinian territories, citing moral reasons.
Soldiers from Unit 8200 — Israel's equivalent of the eavesdropping, code-breaking U.S. National Security Agency — aired their grievances in the Yediot Ahronot daily after sending a letter to the military chief of staff and the prime minister.
"We veterans of Unit 8200, reservists past and present, declare that we refuse to take part in activity against Palestinians and refuse to be tools to deepen the military control in the occupied territories," the soldiers wrote.

Right on! Thanks Tara, sharing.
Your welcome Tina, it's good to hear that there are conscience ridden Israeli soldiers ready to bail out of the Occupation of Palestine. It seems that the walls might be crumbling down from within the ranks over there. This is good news!
Yes! I posted a blog not long ago about many of them. I've got a playlist on lots of them! I love it! Almost restores my faith in humanity.
Thanks sista, sharing this again.
