      "In one section, Capone describes a raid on a family home in Nablus, in the occupied West Bank in Palestine, in which the aim was to arrest a young woman. He said “the family does not let their 18-year-old daughter out easily, and a struggle begins. Pushing, cursing, and we grab her and drive off.

      “We arrive, we take her out of the car, she is zip-tied… Her eyes are of course covered with flannel. I bring her into the room, put her in and see eight other girls inside who look more or less the same.” After this experience, he said he “just fell apart”.

        Did he at least speak out against the system afterwards?

        Because it’s one thing to be blinded by propaganda, he obviously saw how fucked up it is and quit. But did he just say it’s too much for him, or that it’s something that should never happen?
