I do not blame them . If the chief of staff had given a strategy to win the war. I am sure they would have won it. But it is the same thing each time. They are send to the battlefield and then it is the politicians who control the agenda without eliminating the threat of war. They will not put their comrades at risk without a clear plan.They understand the dangers.

To let these refuseniks see why they serve ? Difficult to believe that Hamas has taken over some of these soldiers minds. Their as useless as tits on a boar. How many of the 6 million dead Jews would serve if given the chance? Shame on them and their non Jewish way of submitting to Hamas terror.

These are real Jewish heroes of Israel. Refusing to take part in the IOF in the West Bank They are like these Germans who would voice their mind up towards the Nazi regime (and got jailed or killed). G. Moscatelli

If the war is finished or not, if it is run by politicians or not it has nothing to do with Indiscipline and treason. Those guys are not the ones to decide for politicians or for their superiors. Besides Politicians were elected by the people and they have the mandate of the people. It is part of the Game if democracy. Those guys want their way by stablishing facts by force. They have decided that it's again their conscience even to fly planes, since each time somebody is killed etc etc . They should have resigned in a quietly manner if they don't agree. But they want to continue, but not against Palestinians. This is a political motivated reason from extreme leftists. There is no room in the army for such people. The issue here is they are violating the disciplinary regulations of the army, and specially of the unit 8002. This is equivalent to high treason. This probably the most sensitive unit in the army. Their name should be publish. They want to maintain the incognito while sending the letter to the Guardian.. Absurd

Send the whole bloody lot to the Vanunu holiday farm !

Doe's the state of ISRAEL needs 43 Edward Snowden tomorow? Put all of them in jail TODAY

Every single one of your posts is nasty and hateful towards Israel. If it's so terrible there, why don't you just leave?

They're first mistake is calling it an occupation. It shows where they're loyalties are.

I think these so called reservists are a shame on their families. They should stand trial or better still let them serve on the "Other side" they will soon know what un-scrupulous actions are all about. Without our Intelligence unit we would not exsist. Lock them up as traitors.

Kol hakavod to Labor party leaders Herzog and Yehimovitch. Instead of being hypocritical and supportive they blasted the losers of 8200. Yehimovitch said it best when she pointed out that they were given a free education in the army that allowed them to get enormous salaries when released, while real soldiers who risk their lives in Golani, Kfir, Armor and other units have no such privilege and must struggle with normal salaries. Yehimovitch and Herzog brave stand shows there is hope for the Left.

who refuse to be part of Israel s brutal occupation must be proud of themselves ,they are the real heroes, I hope that many will follow! emma.

That's what those moral cripples meant to say.

This group of protesters are brave and what Israel (and any healthy democracy) needs periodically. Deal with the substance of their complaints... and don't obsess on the messenger!

.... complaints! Don't obsess on the messengers - who are basically patriots who CARE about Israel and its future.

1 remove them from 8200 immediately 2 publish their names 3 prosecute them for inciting against military service
