They're drafted and they constitute a big majority of non-Jewish IDF soldiers.

Make your mind up, two hours ago you posted that only Jews were conscripted into the IDF.

No, I didn't. Typical lefty falsehood.

Given that only Jewish citizens of Israel are subject to the draft, and that the governmental officials in charge of the campaign in Gaza are Jewish, it happens to be the case that they are mostly Jewish. But the accusations are based on what they are doing, not that they happen to be Jewish.

Bernard Madoff happened to be Jewish. Was denouncing him an act of anti-Semitism?

You offer insults but no proof. Typical.

 Deep breath....

 

1. You posted that only Jews were conscripted into the IDF.

 

2. Subsequently you posted that Druze were conscripted into the IDF.

 

I pointed out that post #1 was contradicted by post #2.

 

There followed accusations of me being a "lefty liar" - anyone who knows me or has followed my posts will know that I am far from being a lefty - that is frankly a ludicrous suggestion, albeit perhaps subjective. As to being a liar, a specific objective accusation, not so; it is you who denied posting something that is there, on the record, in black and white!

 

Most people probably would, realising that they had made a mistake would admit it and things would move on. However you resort to abuse. Now, sticks and stones and so on, but these groundless accusations of being a liar, the implication that holding or expressing a different view is somehow inherently deceitful has become prevalent ( with you and several others) and I confess to being some what prickly about it; hence the (tongue in cheek) suggestion that you "lie like a cheap NAAFI watch". It does rather seem, for you that invective and abuse are a "one way street"!

 

Anyone who is interested can follow the exchange of posts, they are on the board, and can come to their own conclusions. I doubt many will, and I don't really blame them!

 

You can stop calling me a liar.

Where did I post that "only Jews were conscripted into the IDF" You got a quote for that?  Or for something that means that?  You keep on making that claim but you offer no evidence. Typical lefty tactic.

Stop trying to squirm your way out of it. You claimed I said only Jew Israelis were subject to the draft in Israel. I never said that or anything like it. I have asked you over and over again to produce evidence and you never have.

I have given you the quote (several times now) in which you said just that, verbatim.

 

I can only conclude that you are now trolling.
