It is possible the “civilian” IDF dressed as women, were, in fact women (who work in Mossad and Shin Bet)- just a thought.
Mossad has used this in the past several times- notably in the take down of the leadership of the Munich Olympics attacks on the Israeli olympic team members at the Munich Airport. The “Sword of Gideon” operation had an amphibious IDF attack force infiltrated through a guard checkpoint by deception cross dressed special forces who silently took out the guard post. A major operation depicted in Speilberg’s “Munich” iirc, or maybe in the original movie “Sword of Gideon”. Very thorough counterattack against well funded animals.
True- their women are fighters- it was a female group that repelled hamas when they attacked like cowards from the sky at the festival. Hamas was going town to town, or block to block looking for women to rape and kill and kidnap, but were driven back by a group of armed women who said “not on my watch!”
