Crossing Continents

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

Reports on the stories that matter to people around the world. Meriel Beattie meets Israel's young draft dodgers. Conscription into the Israeli defence forces has traditionally been the backbone of the Jewish state. Now more and more Israelis are opting out. Are they just cowards, too selfish to do their patriotic duty? Or are they harbingers of a new Israel where individualism and pacifism are no longer dirty words? Producer Hugh Levinson
