    It’s not actually mandatory - out of the 4 Jewish Israelis I’ve volunteered with only 1 had served in the IDF, the other 3 found nonmilitary ways to complete their national service, doing things like teaching instead. Not all Jewish Israelis are war criminals. Not all Jewish Israelis even support the existence of the state of Israel.

      Labeling all IDF members as war criminals does not help your case.

      There are suicidal people in every country.
