Video: web project seeks to put a human face to brutal occupation and colonial war with 'Friend a soldier'

Friend-a-Soldier is an interactive website which allows anyone to meet, talk to and befriend an Israeli combat soldier. Your job is simple: pick a soldier, think of a question — any question — and ask away! You will receive a transparent, personal response in your e-mail inbox from the soldier you’ve chosen.
