An all-female combat unit of just 13 soldiers from the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) took on and killed nearly 100 Hamas gunmen when they fought off a terror attack on an army base and helped liberate a kibbutz, it has emerged.

Lieutenant Colonel Or Ben Yehuda and her 12 women soldiers of the Caracal Battalion led the frontline fightback from armoured personnel carriers after racing to a military post on the Egyptian border that was being attacked during the Hamas onslaught.

With rockets raining down all around her, she learned that the terrorists had broken through Israel's border fence with the Gaza Strip and were heading for the Jewish settlements of Shlomit and Bnei Netzer on October 7.

As much as I want to believe this is all true, considering the source, I have my doubts.

I can’t help being reminded of the group of female soldiers in Ukraine kicking butt against Russia. Those were NOT real….

No matter how big you are, it is not how many rounds you can fire, it is how many rounds hit their target that matters.

I’ll sign up to buy the pinpup calendar when it comes out. Yes, it’s very sexist, but I’m serious.

In a similar vein, the Russians were renowned for their female snipers during World War II.

Poor reporting. The story tells how the commander refused to attack a building where hostages were held because she was afraid to endanger them. But, we were never told whether those hostages were ever freed, if any were killed or if they were taken back to Gaza.

Well, it's an Affirmative Action story afterall.

Uh huh. Riiiiight.

Pure propaganda, designed to demoralize muzzies and promote the feminist agenda. I call BS on this flight of fancy.

Do take into account is that the muslims are poorly trained moron knuckle draggers who would be challenged at shoveling shite from a stable. I’m guessing that when the IDF puts out propaganda they have a little more to back it up than a few gals dressed in combat uniforms.

Deep in the BS details, it admits that THE ENTIRE BATTALION killed 100 terrorists. Not the 13 Maybelline Commandos. And the statements made by the LTC are DESIGNED to advance her feminist agenda.

I smell BS, piled high, wide and deep.

They exist. And must survive shameless abuse by senior males, as anyone realistic might expect. Percentage-wise, only a few wealthy countries can afford the luxury of such ‘purple cows’.

Anyone remember the story of young draftee girls being pimped out to terrorist prisoners in order to help keep terrorist prisoners calm? Not surprising that the toughness of some females would come out. What was their alternative?
