Defense Minister Gallant also wants to win wars but his comments here ignore the fact that the number of Charedim in the IDF is already increasing

Yes, Cheradi participation in IDF has grown since 10/7. I think it must. Israel '48 founding, Orthodox made up but 1% of population, but now its up around 13%. The fighting won't completely stop, IMO, until there is an economic alternative to PA/Hamas leadership (and then trickle-down to everyday Palestinians) that is greater $ return than what flows in from Iran. Too hard of work. Israel should release footage of 10/7 under an 'X' rating. As sick as the genocide was, it needs to be more widely seen. Maybe the Jewish students at UC Berkely could project it on a loop for those Intifada Idiots to view, as a counter expression of free speech.

The IDF needs generals who want to win wars as opposed to becoming politicians

Nobody wins a war. You can survive one but nobody wins. Both sides would have been better off had the war never happened.

Wasn't that quote that was supposedly from Aaron Bushnell proven to be fake? I read that it was. If so, it would improve credibility to remove it from this article and print a retraction. I trust your fact checkers to follow up.

“ If these people just know without checking that an embarrassing anecdote about media progressives is false, and it turns out the anecdote is demonstrably true, what does that say about their judgment on every other story under the sun?”

That’s how they roll! The truth or facts be damned.
