Annotation
The Israeli Yehuda Saul is a special kind of tour guide. He leads a group to a place most Israelis prefer not to hear about - Hebron, the second largest Palestinian city in the Israeli-occupied West Bank. As a soldier, Yehuda Saul was involved in enforcing martial law there. Towards the end of his miliitary servce, he admitted to himself that he was a perpetrator and not simply an innocent man following orders. That moment of selfawareness led him to take radical steps. His first move was to organize an exhibition on the brutality of the occupation. The exhibition soon grew to become an organization, "Breaking the silence", which has collected 750 testimonials from former soldiers o their service in the occupied territories. Every week, Yehuda leeds groups of interested Israelis and others from all over the world to Hebron. Understanding, he believes, is the first step towards real peace.
