when a woman is singing then I am seriously disturbed by the fact that they are training for such a position in the army... one needs plenty of self discipline/control while in combat, if they cannot control themselves when a woman sings then they will have serious issues when they need to fight and defend the country in battle.

You are trying to mask your deep suffering and lonelyness with hate. Trust me,Sagi,the best way to relieve pain,is to do good to yourself and to others. That works amazingly well.I wish you only good,Sagi.Sincerely.

I thought you were Israeli and living here, with your Hebrew name, but your pitiful ignorance knows no bounds! Do you not know that these men , heroes of the IDF, gave their lives so that we may live here safely? Do you not know that Roey Klein jumped on a grenade to save his fellow soldiers? Do you ignoramuses not know how many "settlers" have given their lives in wars and operations bravely fought and completed? All of you people complaining about religious soldiers should ask someone who has been at Bahad 1 (officers training camp) recently, where the army would be WITHOUT them! And you Sagi, should beg forgiveness from the families of the 3 heroes whom you maligned! P.S. So to recap your words "These people are unfortunate in that they have chosen a useless path in life but it is their choice and I and others do not have to care for them": this is what you have to say about officers and soldiers in IDF combat units? At least we know where you stand!

Medevil religious mumbo jumbo has no place in a modern army. They should not only be dismissed from the officers course but punished severly as message to others that such ridiculous behavior will not be tolerated within the IDF.

post,if you were a simple minded bad guy.but this is not the case.You are a highly educated fine person,who tries without being conscious of that ,to mask his great suffering and lonelyness by hate.This can only lead you to become hateful elderly.Trust me Sagi,the best way to relief pain,is to do good to oneself and to others.This works amazingly well. I wish you only good,Sagi.Have a fine week and lots of happiness.

Don't associate hit and stalin , who were first of all murderers , to an Israeli Jew . I was barend , then bernard now carlos in this media .

religion has caused more death and destruction than... Fine to be informed .Thanks Charles.

Lol they're expected to lead men into battle right, when they disregard orders over something so petty and pointless. Good riddance.
