Fantastic book. Although there was some lines depicting the Israeli military as not as likely to commit violence against women. This should be updated considering Israel’s genocide against Palestine and especially in the light of the last year’s brutality from the IDF against women, men and children.

May be clear to everyone, but to check content warnings. This book is definitely not for everyone. But if you can read about these topics, I'd highly recommend this book
