Israeli reservist goes on hunger strike in solidarity with Palestinian prisoner

he is a real hero

I also refused to serve in the IDF, not because of the fabled "brutal occupation" but because I was called up to ethnically cleanse 10,000 Jews from Gush Katif in the summer of 2005.

Israelis can't have the land and say that there cause is righteous. Either give up the land and be moral or continue to steal the land and admit to the inhumane and immoral characteristics of the Israeli agenda. Not both it's not fair

Would that there would be more who would refuse to serve as oppressors in the occupied territories where there main purpose is to protect the settlers and to let the Palestinians know that Israel is there boss and that they had better toe the line. The IDF serves only to make life miserable for the Palestinians. Yaniv Mazor is a hero. Let others of conscience follow him.

Yeah, the alternative is better. Let the Palestinians have the land that they lost by attacking Israel and it'll be exactly like Syria - such a peaceful little country .

If a person like Yaniv runs around unattended - then it means to me that psychiatry in Israel is not on a very high level. He should get medication to straighten his head out - the sooner the better

IF THAT IS WHAT HE WANTS LET HIM GO ON HUNGER STRIKE, THE LONGER THE BETTER SO IT WILL REALLY BE IN SOLIDARITY.

BRAVO! BRAVO!BRAVO! for having the courage of your convictions.

a traitor

You are the hope and humanity, thank you, all the israelies should thank you an be proud of you.

I'm touched and inspired by your courage.

A misguided leftist. Perhaps he should consider a hunger strike the next time a terrorist kills an Israeli....perhaps from his family.

I salute the moral courage of this soldier, which reminds of an Israeli pilot which once refused to bombard palestinians in the occupied territories. This should be a shame for the so called "ethical" leaders in the israeli society or on Peres who shamelessly tries to paint himself as an Angel.
