    Idk I knew an Israeli in the military who literally just played an instrument in the band.

    I guess its more noble to go to prison, but literally some folks in IDF are not murdering babies nor helping.

      If you clean floors in the military you are literally a member of the baby killers. People have choices. I guess it’s just more convenient to kill babies and pretend they’re innocent. Running their mouth about freedom or some nonsense.

          It’s not an argument. It’s just fucking true. What kind of question is this? Do you think going to prison is some kind of moral misdeed in and of itself?

          Yes, going to prison because you don’t want to partake in murder and mutilation is more ethical than murdering and mutilating innocent people.

          Sure, or go see a psychiatrist and tell them you’re suicidal, or go dig up whatever other excuse you can find to go teach at some rural middle school instead of greasing the wheels of the murder machine. They have more than enough rabid racists to fill the front lines already; every waffling centrist opposition voter begrudgingly driving supply trucks is still doing exactly the job the fascist government wants them to.

            Israel has forced conscription. If you refuse to go to the military (iirc when you turn 18), they throw you in prison

              I think they should go to prison, or defect, or flee, or anything but kill people in the name of a fucking government.
