One million reservists (or thereabout) decided that they will continue to serve their country and carry on their reserve duties in the Israeli Army and accept whatever assignments the IDF assigns them to. What a country, this little besieged country is, a soldier has the right not only to object to orders he sees as immoral, but can even buy advertising space in which to express his feeling openly. Any other country with such freedom of expression and behavior? By the way, len, you should know that most of these soldiers come from "Meretz", and the leadership of Meretz has objected to their members' action, yet, they are allowed not only to object to the state but even their own movement's leadership. Democracy in its best embodiment. Time for you to take your hat off to both those soldiers and to the government that allows such dissention.
