> what was it like?  sitting and waiting without a clue what is going on, then when the shooting starts trying to figure out what the fuck is going on, with little success. orders to shoot at bla bla, nothing there so you just shoot in the air, then the shooting stops again. combat over. some guy in another group died, bad luck, i guess. that's how it usually went. you could try and puzzle together what's happening from rumors and bold assumptions, but in the end you were not much better informed than the bottom feeders who watch cnn or read reddit. > what are your thoughts on the recent developments happening in the middle east? the world hopes that this is the war that ends israel, sends the jews back home to america and so brings peace and prosperity back to the middle east. do you think the current cohort of us and israeli soldiers are ready to tackle it? both excel only in one field: arrogance. they keep pretending they're still in the 1960's, when the west had a technological edge and israel's officers had red army training and years of ww2 combat experience. the 1960's are six generations in the past now. the men who fought back then have left the forces long ago, most died of old age by now.
