Synopsis
The Israeli Army is the backbone of Israel and refusing to serve is something worse than taboo, according to Stephen Langfur's "Confessions from a Jericho Jail: What Happened When I Refused to Fight the Palestinians". While sentenced to jail for 21 days, he witnessed guards deprive prisoners of water, and he questioned what had made these Israeli guards become so inhumane.
