Second Druze IDF officer announces intention to resign over Nationality Law
None
A Druze IDF officer announced on his Facebook page Tuesday that he intends to resign from the army in protest against the Nationality Law, which has caused controversy since it passed into law in the Knesset earlier this month.
Shady Zidan, 23, is the second Druze officer to announce his protest resignation.
“Until this day I have given the state my soul, I have risked my life. Until this day I stood by the state’s flag with pride and saluted it … I give my entire being and beyond to the state. In the end, I am a class B citizen,” he wrote.
