That says to me in daily life most of these young men are coming from non-observant homes.<br /><br />Of course, even (most) non-observant young men in Israel still have received some tanach education and some holiday education and observance as a cultural aspect.<br /><br />The IDF certainly is (generally) doing a tremendous mitzvah, defending the land and the lives of the people living here. Whether that makes them kadosh or not is a separate religious discussion and position.Akivahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13042484533217272945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-21209346123005082712011-09-19T13:49:26.442+03:002011-09-19T13:49:26.442+03:00that was the description on the youtube video.
