“The IDF has allowed openly homosexuals to serve since 1993.”

I doubt that is true as Israel has won all of their military engagements since 1993 and that would not have been possible if the IDF was infected with Sodomites.

“In 1983, the IDF permitted homosexuals to serve, but banned them from intelligence and top-secret positions. A decade later, Professor Uzi Even, an IDF reserves officer and chairman of Tel Aviv University’s Chemistry Department revealed that his rank had been revoked and that he had been barred from researching sensitive topics in military intelligence, solely because of his sexual identity. His testimony to the Knesset in 1993 raised a political storm, forcing the IDF to remove such restrictions against gays.”

Israel a model on gays in the military
Oct. 22, 2010
By Dennis Coday

JERUSALEM — Israel, like the United States, is a largely secular society with deep religious roots. And Israel, like the United States, is home to vocal religious conservatives who frown on homosexuality.

But Israel, unlike the United States, has allowed gays and lesbians to serve openly in the military for 17 years. In fact, they are required to.
