(Antiquariat) Breaking the Silence. Women Soldier`s Testimonies

Breaking the Silence is an organization of veterans who served in the Israeli army during the Second Intifada (since September 2000), and have taken it upon themselves to expose the Israeli public to everyday life in the Occupied Territories, a routine situation that is never reflected in the media. An alternative information- conduit thus becomes accessible to the public at large about what the daily goings-on in Israel’s back yard. Breaking the Silence came into being in March 2004, and has since acquired a special standing for both the public and the media, bringing forth the voices of soldiers who had previously remained silent. The ultimate Goal of Breaking the Silence is to stimulate public debate about the moral price that Israeli society as a whole has been paying for a reality in which young soldiers face a civilian population on an everyday basis and control its life. All the testimonies we publish undergo meticulous research, including cross-checking facts with additional eye-witnesses and /or archives of other human rights organizations which are also active in the field. True to our journalistic effort, the identity of our sources is not exposed and remains confidential. The testimonies published here are unedited and presented in their original form, except for details that are withheld in order to conceal the identity of specific testimony-bearers, and/or clarifications of military jargon.
