« Je venais d'avoir 19 ans en mai 1982. La vie était belle. J'étais amoureux. Ensuite on m'a demandé de partir sur une base militaire et d'être le tireur du premier tank à traverser la frontière libanaise. Cela devait être une mission d'une journée toute simple mais ce fut une journée en enfer. Je n'avais jamais tué quelqu'un avant cette terrible journée. Je suis devenu une vraie machine à tuer. Quelque chose là-bas est mort en moi. Sortir ce tank de ma tête m'a pris plus de 20 ans. C'est mon histoire. »
