"We occupied a house in Hebron. You know the procedure – the family moves to the bottom floor. We were on the third floor, and we set up a hose to urinate into, which would drain outside.
We placed the hose so that the urine would flow into the yard beneath us. There were some chicken coops there, and that’s where it fell. And that was the daily joke. To wait until the father or one of the children would reach the chicken coops, and then everyone pisses. ...Those were some of your options... There’s no one to judge you for it."
-An extract from an interview with a veteran Israeli Staff Sergeant who occupied Hebron in 2003
