        To specifically highlight:

        Mazzig has been a staunch defender of Israel during the Gaza war.[6] In October and December 2023, Mazzig, along with other pro-Israel Twitter accounts, promoted false claims that Palestinian children killed by Israel during the war were actually dolls.[9][10]

        This alone is all you need to know about this piece of shit.

          There’s ways to get out of it. People who don’t are either cowards or all in on the fascism.

          Yes. Women are also required, but there is an alternative community service option available to them. Some minor ethnic groups are exempted from the requirement, but for the vast majority it is mandatory.

          Its 2 years 8 months for men, 2 years for women. Having been in the IDF as an citizen from birth is a point about someone’s circumstances rather than their character.

          However that man was in the IDF for 5 years, so he did volunteer beyond the conscription requirement.

          All this is according to wikipedia I am no expert.

          Dodging usually cost some months of jail time. So it’s the choice between that or engaging in ethnic cleansing

          Israel is one of the top payees of propaganda in the world. They recently announced they were increasing their budget to pay more people and more money to spread their bullshit.
