Israeli Soldiers Photos Create Quite a Talk

Read this and perhaps you'll join me in wishing we could see the entire exhibit. I doubt that the exhibit just paints Israel in a poor light. I suspect what it does it show more than the usual PR side of Israel. Like anyplace else, Israel isn't just one type of people, one type of experience, just war-like or just peaceful, just martyr or just oppressor or just victim.

From CNN:

A photographic exhibit called "Breaking the Silence" has struck a nerve in Israel where critics say the images cast Israel in a poor light.

All of the photos in the exhibit were taken by Israeli soldiers stationed in the West Bank city of Hebron. Many were fulfilling their compulsory military service.

Some images show soldiers positioned behind camouflage netting, others with Palestinians in their gun sights, and others watching the city through night scopes.
