1. time to stand and be counted

Anybody who has served in the army and is likely to be called up in wartime must go out there and protest. Intentionally stopping all training to save money is CRIMINAL They got hundreds of thousands protestors over housing prices but nobody has said anything about this and considering its lives that it concerns its a lot more important. You want people to fight wars you train them and no army has the right to ask people to go to war without training. We lost in Lebanon but Hezbollah didn't win and the reason was largely because of years of budget cuts alot of reservists were not trained. That was a mistake and after the war Gabbi Ahkenazi corrected it now Benny Gantz has intentionally decided that we will go back to the pre Lebanon situation even though we know the consequences
2. What will it take, Lapid?

Will it take a sudden surprise attack in which we are standing there with out pants down around our knees, watching our cities being bombed by a third rate country? Or one day on the way to the office you are buzzed by a Syrian jet because there were no F-16 Fighting Falcons to deter them. What is your statement then......"What the heck was that?" Too, little, too late. You are better at writing stories. At least we the people can delete them.
3. Just remind us all how much the Harideem get in handouts?
