FReeper 'Uncle Miltie' Volunteers for the Israeli Defense Forces for 3 Weeks
Sar-El ^ | 5/15/24 | Uncle Miltie

Posted on 05/15/2024 8:29:31 AM PDT by Uncle Miltie

I'm at Seatac Airport (SEA) at the gate for my 10:00 A.M. flight LY9468 through Newark to Tel Aviv. I'm volunteering for the IDF through their organization "Sar-El". Usually, volunteers do warehousing work on base, live in the barracks, and eat with the soldiers.

I believe in transmogrification. For three weeks, I'm freeing up an 18-year-old Israeli kid with an M16 to go into Gaza and kill ham ass. I'm 62 and fit, and I can do the warehousing work that a soldier would otherwise have to do, and they can go to the front. Through the magic of transmogrification, I'm on the front lines of the fight for Western Civilization against the savage for 3 weeks.

You can do this too! Here's the Sar-El site:

SAR-EL - The National Project for Volunteers for Israel

https://www.sar-el.org/

Here's their Purpose statement:

"What is the purpose of Sar-El? Sar-El supporters come from around the world and from within our country to contribute to the security of the State of Israel by assisting on IDF bases in a logistical support role.

It is a unique volunteer experience fostering new friendships, greater understanding and the creation of a cultural exchange between Israel and the volunteers’ home countries.

Sar-El welcomes friends of Israel as volunteers, many of whom become “goodwill ambassadors” for our country. We are the only volunteer program that situates volunteers directly on IDF bases to work side by side with our soldiers."

They make this reasonably easy to accomplish. They have 1, 2 and 3 week programs. You have to get there, and arrange your own weekends, so it's not cheap.

There is a certain point in life where I cannot just flap my jaw and be a keyboard warrior. This is my time, and this is my way to do something concrete.

I'm arriving early, staying late, and have weekends off. I'll have lots of time to hang with the locals in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. My situational awareness is good, and the real threat level is relatively low (knives and car rammings are less frequent than shootings in Chicago!) It's my first trip to Israel, so it should be interesting.

Y'all keep the FReeper "allahu akhbar chorus" in line while I'm gone (they know who they are, and most of you do too). I'll be dark during the Israeli work week (Sun-Thu), as internet use is not allowed on base. I may check in on Friday or Saturday from the city. I'll do an after-action report on the plane back through Boston on June 10th, op sec being observed.

Keep up the good fight, and FREEP ON!

I guess you’re going to bring that monumental intellect of yours with you. Too bad - we’ll have to do without your clever replies and repartee. ☹️

Now you’re an expert on “real men?” 🤣

like your comrades….those tough guys in the video? The ones holding up a woman’s lingerie? Or the ones stealing jewelry…?

Wow - this is fantastic. I’m 61 and was advised I am too old to join the IDF and head to the front lines to some Hamas terrorists. Better me risk my life than young kids who have their whole lives ahead. But perhaps this is a good 2nd option.

Sincere prayers are with you in this Miltie.

Thank you for posting this thread!

Unto you posted those thread, who even knew this was a possibility?
Like you, I’m also in solid physical condition, about your age and can follow in the footsteps, that you are initiating. I’ll be researching this and checking my passport in the next couple of days.

May the IDF, the nation of Israel and you be blessed beyond measure and may your time and effort bear much fruit.

If you will be starting a ping list, kindly add me. Many will be interested in your experiences.

Best wishes, stay safe and Godspeed brother.
🙏

Saw your PM, however my account is too new to reply.
Just checked and my passport in good until 2027.
Not concerned about clearance, because I’ve held us security clearance since 2002 (TMI beyond that) and a squeaky clean record.
Next step has already begun, as I’ve reached out to find someone to stay at my home. “Where God guides, God provides” in His perfect timing!

Zechariah 4:6 “...not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit, says the LORD of hosts”

Lean and trust Him!

Be safe brother. While I suspect it to already true, serve with the humility which led you down His path. I suspect that one day you will weep quietly and ask Him; “How is it so Papa, that I went to serve You, yet You blessed me more than I blessed You?”. He does this, but isn’t about “self”. We cannot “out give” Him, so when it happens, let it rest and give it all back to Him. Just words of encouragement.

Those tears of humility will carry you for many years on your knees.

My prayers will be with you, even beginning on the flight there.

Please stay in touch, as you can and even when you return.

With you in Him

You’ll be very safe there. As you note, less street crime than you encounter in your average US city. Of course there are islamo fascists who occasionally rampage but those are everywhere and the Israelis are well prepared for them unlike US cities where we have crazed addicts roaming the streets.

Personally I would stay off the buses, though I think incidents have been rare since the last intifada and fewer suicide bombers since the borders have been mostly shut down.

Landed, Tel Aviv. Ensconced in AIRBNB in the Yemenite Quarter. Luggage catching up tomorrow, hopefully. Going to the market then walk the beach for sunset.

Good times!

Erasure of Palestine? The Arabs of the LEvant contiuously rejected any Palestinian state. They didn't call themselves Palestinians until the Soviets told them to in the 1950s. The Jordanians and Egyptians conquered the "West Bank" and Gaza. They didn't create a Palestinian State. "Palestinian" terrorists were let lose to destroy Israel. And it is ISrael that gave the "Palestinians" land from 1994-2005.
Put down the communist and Islamist propoganda and learn history.

The erasure of Palestine,

The name is فِلَسْطِينَ from Philistia and the people الفلسطينيون Philistines.

Stop trying to erase history by putting an English letter on the Philistines. There is no ‘P’ in Arabic.

Remember Joel 3:
[1] For, behold, in those days, and in that time, when I shall bring again the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem,
[2] I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land.
[3] And they have cast lots for my people; and have given a boy for an harlot, and sold a girl for wine, that they might drink.
[4] Yea, and what have ye to do with me, O Tyre, and Zidon, and all the coasts of Palestine? will ye render me a recompence? and if ye recompence me, swiftly and speedily will I return your recompence upon your own head;
[5] Because ye have taken my silver and my gold, and have carried into your temples my goodly pleasant things:
[6] The children also of Judah and the children of Jerusalem have ye sold unto the Grecians, that ye might remove them far from their border.
[7] Behold, I will raise them out of the place whither ye have sold them, and will return your recompence upon your own head:
[8] And I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the children of Judah, and they shall sell them to the Sabeans, to a people far off: for the LORD hath spoken it.
[9] Proclaim ye this among the Gentiles; Prepare war, wake up the mighty men, let all the men of war draw near; let them come up:
[10] Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruninghooks into spears: let the weak say, I am strong.
[11] Assemble yourselves, and come, all ye heathen, and gather yourselves together round about: thither cause thy mighty ones to come down, O LORD.
[12] Let the heathen be wakened, and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat: for there will I sit to judge all the heathen round about.
[13] Put ye in the sickle, for the harvest is ripe: come, get you down; for the press is full, the fats overflow; for their wickedness is great.
[14] Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision.
[15] The sun and the moon shall be darkened, and the stars shall withdraw their shining.
[16] The LORD also shall roar out of Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the heavens and the earth shall shake: but the LORD will be the hope of his people, and the strength of the children of Israel.
[17] So shall ye know that I am the LORD your God dwelling in Zion, my holy mountain: then shall Jerusalem be holy, and there shall no strangers pass through her any more.
[18] And it shall come to pass in that day, that the mountains shall drop down new wine, and the hills shall flow with milk, and all the rivers of Judah shall flow with waters, and a fountain shall come forth of the house of the LORD, and shall water the valley of Shittim.
[19] Egypt shall be a desolation, and Edom shall be a desolate wilderness, for the violence against the children of Judah, because they have shed innocent blood in their land.
[20] But Judah shall dwell for ever, and Jerusalem from generation to generation.
[21] For I will cleanse their blood that I have not cleansed: for the LORD dwelleth in Zion.

Usually, I don’t mind the maggots. But I see the clown act known as hardspunned has not commented on you doing it with IDF for 3 weeks

HardSP clown needs to do the same and volunteer for Hamas

Put down the communist and Islamist propoganda and learn history.

Good advice. Here's a scholarly, heavily footnoted (partial) history of Zionist complicity with Nazi Germany.

THE SECRET CONTACTS: ZIONISM AND NAZI GERMANY, 1933-1941 / KLAUS POLKEHN

https://archive.org/details/KlausPolkehnTheSecretContacts-ZionismAndNaziGermany1933-1941/mode/2up

Anti-Semitism became official German government policy when Hitler was named Chancellor of the German Reich on January 30, 1933. The spring of 1933 also witnessed the beginning of a period of private cooperation between Zionism and the German fascist regime to increase the inflow of German Jewish immigrants and capital to Palestine. The Zionist authorities succeeded in keeping this cooperation a secret for a long period, and only since the beginning of the 1960's have criticisms of it been expressed here and there. The Zionist reaction has usually consisted of declarations that their onetime contacts with Nazi Germany were undertaken solely to save the lives of Jews. But the contacts were all the more remarkable because they took place at a time when many Jews and Jewish organizations demanded a boycott of Nazi Germany.

To question the reaction of the Zionist movement to German fascism, which in the course of its twelve-year rule murdered millions of Jews, is a taboo in the eyes of the Zionist leaders. Only rarely is it possible to come across authentic evidence or documents concerning these occurrences. The following enquiry consists of information gathered up to this date about some important aspects of the cooperation between the Zionists and the fascists. It remains in the nature of things that this enquiry does not present a complete picture. This can only be possible when the archives (above all those in Israel), in which the documents concerning these events are under lock and key, are made available for scholarly research.
