56. we carry out the orders....
Edited on Sun Jul-17-11 01:16 AM by pelsar
and as was shown in the past, no soldier is immune being guilty of war crimes. We are well versed in the rights and wrongs and have received many lectures on the subject, hence the responsibility lies with us as well.

true no every israeli is in the IDF at the sametime, most dont even serve in the territories or in combat and even less serve in the reserves....but that doesn't mean the people dont support the IDF as per the public pressure on the govt to get gilad back home indicates as well as the general respect that military gets here.

3) again?...oy ken, when will you learn?....how many times do i have to mention that you have to learn to separate your wishful thinking from reality?......all i ask is that you do a bit of research before writing nonsense. Think of it this way, when your research comes up blank, you' ll be faced with a tough decision: base your opinion on the reality of your research or stay with your beliefs regardless of what you discover. At least that way you'll be more honest with your self.

the refuse to serve in the Territories movement is dead (its not growing-it died after gaza)..there is a general "dont want to serve" movement, but thats quite limited and is more based around selfish materialistic motives than political.

i accept criticism of israeli security policies without a problem....just be aware that we're carrying out those policies, the people, not mercenaries
______

but you skipped the question or at least you didnt answer clearly:
why are 90%o of the arabs anti semites (according to the poll)?...because of what i do?
