Bieber Unrepentant After IDF Discharge
Excerpts;
“Even now, close to half a year later, Bieber still speaks about the incident on the Gaza Strip sand dunes with a mixture of anger and excitement. Freshly discharged from the army, Bieber, whose family made aliya from New Jersey nine years ago, speaks freely about his refusal of orders and what pushed him to disobey the military he said he still loved.”
“Bieber was arrested immediately and stood trial before his superiors. Sentenced to 56 days in prison, Bieber was transferred to Prison 4 in Tzrifin. But even before he got there he knew, by the dozens of phone calls, that he had done the right thing. An 80-year-old Holocaust survivor, Bieber said, called him and said that he put on tefillin for the first time in 40 years after watching the refusal of orders on television.”
