Swimming and planting trees?!? I hope they are brought up on war crimes.

[Gaffer]

.....soldiers playing soccer, swimming in the waters of Gazan beaches, spraying graffiti inscriptions on the walls of Palestinian houses, and planting trees brought from Israel.

Oh, the Humanity! Such HORRIBLE atrocities! Give me a break. That reservist should learn to keep his mouth shut and understand exactly what those Hamas Monsters and the Gazans who helped them do.

[Long Jon No Silver]

Not enough water on Earth to clean those slime

[wgmalabama]

Sounds like media trying to find anything to bitch about. I read the sentence and expected soccer with palastenian head but no. Completing an order / mission first. Idk what to think. Granted I did not read the BS article just the posted excerpt. So idk maybe I am missing something.

Most soldiers are “kids.” Kids, will be kids.

Some of this sounds like a breakdown in military discipline, which is not a real public relations problem unless they start shooting civilians for the “hell of it.” The headline is far worse than the facts.

So what is so wrong with, “.....observed soldiers playing soccer, swimming in the waters of Gazan beaches,..... , and planting trees brought from Israel.......” I mean planting a tree is an attempt at disrupting global warming.......isn't it?

Depending on what the graffiti says, that to is also not all that bad.

[Long Jon No Silver]

The graffiti might be ‘Israel woz ‘ere”

[llevrok]

But did they use the correct pronouns? Enquiring minds need to know!

[Williams]

Are these a joke?

Swimming, planting trees....

[Mark17]

At least they aren't playing soccer with muslim heads for balls.

Good point.

[Ann Archy]

Their Commanders are as BAD as ours!!

[Jimmy Valentine]

Next to cooking babies alive, raping and mutilating women and other horrors perpetrated by the Palestinians, this is very thin soup.

[sauropod]

Agree, D1.

[RoosterRedux]

soldiers playing soccer, swimming in the waters of Gazan beaches, spraying graffiti inscriptions on the walls of Palestinian houses, and planting trees brought from Israel.

The horror, the barbarism.

Next these beasts will be saying "Smoke 'em if you got 'em."

[scottiemom]

Alarming? Hardly. If they are pursuing the Hamas Muslim subhumans who butchered their babies and they are successful, I find it almost amusing that anyone condemns these soldiers for letting off steam. It has always puzzled me as to why those who can’t or won’t defend a nation in war are first in line to condemn those who take their place.

[I-ambush]

“Oh gee, Israeli soldiers taking a swim. How undisciplined!/sarc”

Hamas don’t surf.

[nikos1121]

Thought this was the Bee

[Lurker]

Wow. Soldiers are being soldiers.

Color me shocked.

[eartick]

All true.

Where are the non-coms to distribute discipline?

[Jolla]

spraying graffiti, swimming at the beach? IDF knows what those Hamas animals did to their women and children and they are concerned with graffiti and sunbathing?

Who’d a thunk it? Frank Burns is serving in the IDF reserves in Gaza
