Rita ,   Tel Aviv   (08.24.09)
if they did not serve. There are a lot of Arab speakers who serve. This easy job is a priviliege
3. anonymous hearsay qualifies as news on ynet
Ran   (08.25.09)
this "news" article sums up ynet's level of quality of journalism perfectly.
4. Fire the Foreign Ministry employee!
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (08.25.09)
Employees are not allowed to speak about their bosses that way. In any other country that person would be fired already. Only racists do not support this.
5. Outlaw veterans in the FM

The foreign ministry should be people committed to peace. Anyone who served in the racist army of occupation should be barred from serving in diplomatic posts. IDF Soldiers are criminals who belong in jail
6. To #1. A Geo Quiz
Michael ,   Moscow, USA   (08.25.09)
Geo quiz! This European country did not exist prior to 1918. After a brief period of independence this country enthusiastically surrendered itself to German Nazis in order to kill out all its Jewish population. Then it enthusiastically surrendered itself to Russian Cossacks in order to expel all Germans. Now racially pure this country proudly calls itself part of Europe (for some 5-10 years). Since main population of that country never considered to be most bright and educated it became a major supplier of unskilled labor all over the Europe. It also has 2 clowns at the helm. These 2 clowns also happen to be twin brothers that nobody can tell apart. What is the name of that ‘European’ country?
7. serve the country
colin   (08.25.09)
LIES This coloumn is a fabrication.There is no cadet who would sprout such lies about the request of Minister Lieberman.which is the correct thughts of many of the population. Nobody talks of immigrants who did not serve .Thier coming to Israel is enough proof that they are genuine Israelis and are not dotting on the tax paying public.Many arabs and haridim have also served the state so there are no Excuses. GOOD ON LIEBERMAN WHO IS CORRECTING A LONG OUTSTANDING WRONG To hell with the pests and Virus (peace now) spredders.
8. Precedent in civil service law
Ilan ,   Ariel   (08.25.09)
The civil service law was changed in such a way as to almost completely exclude Hareidim from all civil service jobs by requiring a formal post High School degree. So there is a precedent for changing the rules even if it results in excluding certain sectors. In this case the demand for some form of national service is reasonable, as people serving in government should be required to fulfill the same basic responsibilities as the average citizen.
9. Lieberman is right
Civil Servant ,   France   (08.25.09)
I was also asked to prove I served my country before being hired by a ministry.
