......Meanwhile, over in Israel, handsome, intelligent, patriotic young women serve in the Israel Defense Force (IDF) fighting Islamic terrorism alongside male soldiers, struggling to defend the land given them by God and to ensure the safety of the Jewish people.
Unlike Nancy Pelosi, who encourages MS-13 gang members and potential terrorists to invade America, IDF intelligence commander Shelly Marhevka identifies and impedes terrorist invasions on Israel’s southern border.

Are you saying female Israeli soldiers are only there for sex?
I am raising several questions;
Why were those pictures posted here? It wasn’t because these were killing machines. It was because they are sexy pictures of female soldiers.
I’m also questioning whether or not soldiering is their first commitment, especially at a time when fellow, male, soldiers are being killed in combat.
History, including the recent history to which I posted a link, says that they don’t belong in positions which will get other (male) soldiers killed.
Thank you.
I specifically chose them because none were overtly sexual. It is only that, like me, you are a flaming heterosexual.

That female soldiers die in combat does not make male Israelis sex objects.
I prefer that women not serve; but it is not because I think they are whores.
Have you been to Israel and met some of them?
I have. I lived with some who were stationed on a kibbutz near the Gaza border. I think I have a better understanding of their capabilities than others.
I know women and I know the military, regardless of your feelings, they cannot soldier as well as a man.
Your feminism is a destructive force in the military.
“you can’t afford me”
(without dental insurance)
You don’t know the Israeli military
We still have to play this feminist game of females being equal to males as warriors?
They don’t have to be ‘equal’ to play a crucial role. If they were not providing a crucial role in the Israeli army, believe me, they would not be there. Both men and women are drafted but women are conscripted for 2 years, men for 3 years. So right off the bat it is not about ‘equality’. It is about what is best for the country. Period.
In Israel they are dead serious about security and if you are not doing your job well in the military (whether a man or a woman) you are out ... and probably court martialed to boot. They don’t mess around. There is no whining and no excuses. And they don’t do it to make a feminist or social engineering point. It’s all business all the time in the Israeli military. No one is trying to make a point about ‘equality’.
You feminists put them there, and struggle to convince the gullible that they are equal as warriors.
What combat leader would want to replace his man warriors with a shorter, lighter, weaker, sicklier, less aggressive, slower moving, more terrain limited, reduced distance traveling, hygienically vulnerable, smaller weight carrying, more prone to injury, version, if not for feminists like you forcing it?
Dear rktman,
When you asked, “Kinda like Geaux Tigers right?”, I will accept it that you now know the Louisianan way of spelling the word ‘go’, which I borrow.
‘Tigers’? Ohhhhhhhhhh, you mean the college football team that had to go to court, to prove that they were worthy enough to play in the prestigious Rose Bowl?
It was the same year, that a know-nothing vice president sued the incumbent election winning President, too.
Coincidence?
No, feminists did not put women in the Israeli military

You need to read Israeli history. You do not understand how their military was formed and how they are organized and the way they think about national security. It is not the same as the way the US military operates.
And it predates anything about feminism.
It has only one purpose, survival. Period. No one cares about “equal as warriors” or anything like that. That is not how they think.
Go there. Talk to people. And read history of their country. You are hung up on something that is not even a part of it.
Everyone is a warrior in Israel. Even 80 year old grandmothers are warriors. This is how they think.
They do not think like you do. They think of survival and know that they all have to pull together for one and only one purpose. Survival. They are outnumbered by hundreds of millions. All hands have to be on deck in whatever capacity they can. It has nothing whatsoever to do with “being equal” or feminism or anything of the sort.
You can rah rah all you want, but as far as feminists putting females in the Israeli army yes, it is a fundamental feminist goal, and every female that replaces a man, weakens the military.
Do you really think the hard core Israeli warriors would not want to replace the females if the politicians would let them? Do you think that warriors in all Western nations and in Israel suddenly realized that men and women are interchangeable, at the very same time that feminist politics took control?
At one time Israel experimented, like the Soviets did, and they learned their lesson, but the feminists like you forced women on them anyway.
Your pro-females in the military, is the biggest feminist argument that I have seen for a while.
LOL! When we lived in LA, I often got mail with an “eaux” on my last name. There is an “ow” at the end and since it’s pronounced like “eaux” people assumed it was that, thus “eaux”.
