Based on Robert Dimesky's reply, I'll add that my original comment was clearly not in any way a criticism of Israeli military service, which I admire greatly. If anything it was praise, if couched in male admiration for the female that has existed since Adam and Eve. If that is wrong, give me back my rib bone.

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Everyone of age in Israel is invested in the security of the Nation...We hosted 6 month US R&R's for Israeli paratroopers in the mid to late 60's. These troops were under 18 years old....they fought and afterwards, were mustered out of regular service to spend time in West Hartford, CT, with people who cared deeply for them and their cause. Do not be fooled, these women are among the very finest trained fighters imaginable. They spend many years in acdutra, then spend many more years in active reserves.....always on call.

Hmm. Frankly I am not seeing the downside. Larger image available! Click image to see it. |
