4. a 42 year old major retires,
sweeter than honey ,   far away   (09.27.11)
after 25 years service and collects a full pension. just the sort of economic incompetence that has brought greece to its knees. there a government employee, maybe a railway worker etc., who has worked for 25 years, from 17 to 42 also retires on a full pension, and will live for another 40 years on average, taking more money in pension then ever earnt. and who pays for all this? chancellor merkel? the us treasury? that little old lady who shakes that blue and white can at the deli? and i thought israel aspired to be a classless society. how wrong i was. (ps we all suffer mate).
5. Mystical portion of the budget
solomon ,   bklyn   (09.27.11)
If the salaries and pensions of career officers portion of the budget is “fixed” and the IDF has no access to it, who does? And why does the IDF not have access? Anyone know?
6. We need to build more armored and
jason white ,   afula, israel   (09.28.11)
armored infantry division for the threat from the south. iraq may soon be another dog in the fight from the east. We aso need to order F-35Bs and more anti missile batteries, All our armor and artillery need to be protected by anti armor missile systems. I want to know why the government refuses to go after draft dodgers. We do not need these cowards to tell us how to spend our money. Let the draft dodgers pay for our defense. Only someone who is daffy does not believe in a strong I.D.F.
