Yea, it’s a quandary. Now is not the time for actions such as mentioned in the article.

And yet the Left never stops. They know they can take advantage of the need for unity to seize more power and entrench. They did this with Bush iI’s disastrous homeland security changes after 9/11 here.

The issue is never the issue with them. The issue is always their revolution.

“Far right”

As if the communist LEFT never abuses prisoners, LOL!

It’s long past time that the “far right” rose up and threw out the trash. Now is the time for a far right revolution. Destroy ALL leftwing institutions and organizations here and abroad, once and for all. /spit

One of my nephews in Israel was called up to serve in Gaza several months ago. He had told us before, based on information from several friends in his unit (Israeli reservists almost always stay with the same unit for life) that the body armor was expired and not made of the most modern/effective materials in any case. Further, the helmets were even worse. A bunch of extended family donated thousands to a charity that was (and, I presume, still is) buying the best quality equipment overseas and shipping it to the soldiers; he received the armor and helmet, and they’ve served him well. His unit was in heavy combat several times, and several soldiers were either killed or wounded (though the dished out much more than they received). Without he and several of his friends having had that updated equipment, it would have been much worse.

The IDF has totally dropped the ball on this issue, and should WELCOME donations of equipment, not punish reservists for trying to stay alive. This is nothing more than an abuse of power to cover up for a failure. Hoped, Israel will learn a lesson from this - because more war is coming. They need to be better equipped BEFORE a war starts, because in the modern era you go to battle with the army you have, not the army you want. By the time industry gears up and starts producing equipment, the war is over. Those in logistics who failed should be demoted and then cut from service, if not brought up on charges - people died unnecessarily due to their negligence.

That was my impression as well. I need to read the whole thing when I have time.

As always, “right-wing” means disliked by the author.

I thought this might be about baseball, too. Misleading headline.

“The investigation into the soldiers was launched after a detained terror suspect was brought from the base to a hospital with signs of serious abuse, including to his anus. He was arrested by the IDF in the Gaza Strip several weeks ago.”
