There's an interesting excerpt from a new book written by a poster at Maggie's Farm, Reluctant Warriors. The author has "interviewed a group of Israeli citizen-soldiers and assembled their experiences." A snip:

...we don’t stop there. We are to get to a known terrorist planner; kill him. We set off to the house; he’s is not there. While we are in the house, we get radioed information to find him in another house.

We get to the house. We take out the three guards with silencers. We enter his bedroom. He is sleeping. Next to his wife. This bothers me. We have this sleeping gas for the wife should she wake up. But I can’t kill him. Sleeping next to his wife. I inject him so he stays asleep: he shakes briefly, then goes limp. We roll him out of bed, his wife still sleeping. I carry him on my back downstairs and we are off. Deliver him to Shabak for questioning. I think this is good, since I think that they got a lot of information from him.

(There is a touch of uncertainty in his voice as he talks about not killing this man.)...

Much more.
