Former IDF Chief-of-Staff Gadi Eizenkot referred to the letter signed by IDF reservists saying they will not volunteer in future IDF operations should the judicial reform become law. "The IDF is the only body designed solely to maintain the security of the state of Israel, and it's irreplaceable. While I too oppose the judicial reform, the IDF must be kept out of that debate, and those called upon to serve must do so without hesitation."
