"They hate Israel, and I don't blame them."
The phrase came from the mouth of 26-year-old Israeli soldier Amers Shani Azmon, who described himself as a "left-winger" in the army, fighting for a right-wing government that he did not support. He was saddened by the deaths of the people of Gaza, children and the elderly, and the Palestinians rightly hated Israel.
But he also disapproved of Hamas's attack on Israel, which he considered inhumane, acknowledging that it was a complicated situation, but convinced himself that he was "trying to protect the people" by joining the war.
