Some quotes from the video:
The official orders, to anyone who breaks curfew, is shoot to kill.
I wasn't sure if I was enjoying the power of controlling all of these people, or if I don't understand why kids look at me frightened, why are they running away when I walk into the street? Before my service, I worked as an educator, I love kids, so I think I was very confused on why a kid would find me scary.
I realized that my job is actually to maintain an apartheid system. Very early on I understood that the rights that the Jewish settlers have are not the rights that the Palestinians have. I understood that I cannot touch a Jewish settler if he is attacking a Palestinian; the best I can do is call a local police department to come handle it, like I would do at home in Jerusalem. So these Jewish settlers are living under the same rights that I live in Jerusalem but the Palestinian next to them next house over next building over sometimes next apartment over lives under my rule, my military rule, and I can do whatever I want with him.
I can take his home as a temporary base for a few hours to a few days to a few weeks, I can decide that I'm arresting the people of the house and tying him up to the fence of my base. If we will get an order to demolish their home or just lock their front door and don't let them out into the street, their house is on a street that only Jewish settlers can walk on, and Palestinians cannot

In the age of 15, 16, I began being almost obsessed with trying to understand the Nazi side in the Holocaust, not only to hear the stories of the victims of the Jewish victims and any other victims from the Holocaust, but to try to understand how can a Nazi soldiers get up in the morning, give his kids a kiss his wife a hug and go out to the camps and do his job?
I just couldn't understand that. And when I got into the occupied territories for the first time I understood how can there be a contradicting inside yourself, as a human being you could do your job and be a one person at home, be a loving caring, you know, boyfriend or a son or brother, and in the same time, hold people under a regime so oppressed that people are dying not from only your bullets, but the amount of calories being entered into their territory, like in Gaza, from depression or sickness
Leaving the military and start interviewing soldiers, really, I think, made me understand that there's a systematic oppression that is taking place in the occupied territories
Actually what being an Israeli means, being an Israeli, growing up in the Israeli educational departments, you understand that all the Arabs hates you [...] Going into the military you're already going so full of hate and fear at the same time that you don't need much to be very aggressive, violent, and racist toward Palestinians, they see the Palestinian women and the Palestinian men as subhuman
