1. I was honored to serve with Druze soldiers
Robert Goldman ,   cooper city Florida   (05.07.08)
I was always impressed with their love of service and their love of life, one second a serious fighter then next a smiling kid who pulled his first prank with his brothers. ther warmth and friendship has never left me through all these years. They honor the country and themselves with their undying service to Israel. may we mourn their losses as our own, and never forget how they stand besides us in peace and war.
2. A remarkable man. May G-d bless his soul,

the druze will feel as equals in israeli society as well. Their sacrifice for the state of israel means that their needs and concerns should be #1 priority for israel. Israel does not have many friends and should treasure the ones we have.
4. G-d Bless the Druze...

How interesting : Brotherhood and admiration, but that doesn't stop the govt. from bulldozing Druze "illegal" houses, while their sons are in combat.
9. #8, what you said is completely false.

"Druze houses bulldozed" This is an absolute lie. Go confront your own history in the name of "manifest destiny".
11. #8 they do the same to Jews

all my sorrow, sympathy and condolences to this wonderful family who has given one of their sons to the idf top military unit. may his name be forever retained in god's protected list. may his soul know only peace and shalvah. may his family know no future sorrow. israel, take notice!!!! he was one of yours as are many druze in the community that are one of the israeli minority that believes and supports you. treat those you have in your midst as equals and make them proud and happy citizens. all men are created equal in the eyes of god.
