Israel : Refuseniks
7 minutes, 2002
Ref: 252

To some - they're nothing short of heroes. To others - they're traitors for refusing to serve. As Israel mobilises 20,000 reservists for what it calls its war on terror - a small, but growing number of Army reservists are facing jail for refusing to answer the call-up. They say they won't take part in a 'fool's war' against the Palestinian people - in a campaign which is fuelling the debate about the morality of Israel's military operation. Three of the Refuseniks explained their stand.
