Omer Goldman (Israeli Refuser)

Submitted by Amanda Henley

Omer Goldman is an Israeli woman of about 21 years old. She is the daughter of a Mossad Chief, and Israeli refusenik.

She was raised as all other Israelis, to join the armed forces and like it. As she got closer to 18, however, she did what set her aside from everyone else her age and nationality... she questioned her future and authority.

She visited a settlement one day, and was shot at, blindly, she noticed by Israeli soldiers- ppl she had always thought were there to protect her.
