View Full Version : Lady IDF Capt kicks a$$, takes names.
Now that's my kinda lady, and cute too.
This Female IDF Soldier Fought Off 23 Terrorists in Surprise Attack
Captain Or Ben-Yehuda of the Israeli Defense Forces has cemented a legacy that will endure well past her lifetime. The young, decorated IDF Captain was in charge of a company of soldiers when they were violently attacked by nearly two dozen terrorists near the Egyptian border.
Due to her leadership and bravery, she and her men were able to survive.

She is a tough woman. Sounds like Mom is too.
Sent wrong message ref the CPT.
AND she's rocking the Hebrew hammer!
My wife was an officer in the US Army, Airborne AND Air Assault. She can run an AR darn near as well as I. If I don't pay attention, she'll out shoot me with it.
Some girls can kick butt. Hooah!

LOL that would piss a lot of soldiers off.
Maybe also mention Bradley Manning too.

No, I understand that view point - didn't think of that, was not meaning to denigrate the CPT's bravery.
I first saw the IDF Captain's story a few days ago. The fact that, after she was shot, she continued to do her job is a demonstration of Leadership.
I just realized... She is sporting one of Markm's seatbelt slings.

Okay.
One of those gun nerd things you know where you notice the guns and not the girl thing but what is the rubber band/string for that wraps around the butt of the stock?

Ah. Makes sense.
Never seen one in person.
Cool, thanks!
I'm skeptical, to say the least, about this story.

Agreed, Though I don't care for Israel's politics they are some of the toughest people in the Middle East. IDF soldiers are a very courageous group.

Why are you skeptical?
Because it directly contradicts what he was taught in Gioventù Italiana del Littorio about women in general and Jews in particular.
Leftist BS!
Caracal Battalion was the first male and female integrated unit in the IDF.
Israelis call it the unit where the women are more manly than the men in the unit and the men are more feminine than the the girls in the unit.
This medal and the reporting of it comes at the time when the leftist are making a big push to force women into all infantry units and even worse into special ops units.
Israel can't afford such social engineering. We can't afford to lose.
As a retired commander of a special ops unit, I would not allow this BS in my unit. If it was forced down my throat, I would resign.
The lads that saved the day in this attack were LOTAR Elat, and a member of that unit was a long term friend of mine and he paid the ultimate price.
So save me the PC BS.

So what is the story?
She personally held a position and put that many down,
Or she commanded a company that did so.
The former is pretty bad ass,
But the later is business as usual for any Mark 1 Mod 0
2.0 and go phys ed major from a D3 school that was paying off his ROTC scholarship as an Infantry Officer.

So... let me get this right.
She approached a car with poor cover, got shot then radioed for back up and got the Medal of Valor?
That is some serious spin if that is the case.
Weird there is almost no details in the story.

Remember all of the articles for the female Army soldiers that "passed" Ranger selection? Only to find out they just graduated the first phase after 3 attempts, and still had more phases remaining? Same thing: highly-politicized article to get support for women in combat roles.
This is a slap in the face to those that really have gone above and beyond.
The truth is the anti terror reserve unit in Elat, did all the heavy lifting.
Why are you skeptical?
Because Israel is even more full of Leftist social engineer Feminist Marxists than the USA is.

No, because it directly contradicts probabilty.

Exactly. But I suppose Yoni is a Nazi too.
I have been called a Nazi many times in my life.
My response was always the same.
A laugh with a smile, then I respond you stupid uneducated moron.
If we were a Nazis you and every Arab in this town would have been dead decades ago, thus depriving me of the joy of your company.
Because Israel is even more full of Leftist social engineer Feminist Marxists than the USA is..
No, it is not. Simple population figures between the two countries means that all females in Yisrael would have to be "Leftist social engineers..." and the number needed would be more than available in the population.
Your comment is nothing more than being indicative of your mind set b/c it is not grounded in reality; at all. You are trying to cover your anti-Semitisim through obsfucation.
There are many more conservative leaning Jews than the media would like for you to know about. We have lived in 8 states and three countries. Not every community has a Reform(liberal), Conservative, and Orthodox shuls(synagogues.). Which translates into we(wife and young ones) have had in several instances to worship at typical "liberal" shuls.
There are plenty of liberal hating, gun-toting Jews out here. Firearms and security are being given fresh thoughts in many synagogues.
Don't let the liberal lying media slant your views on all Jews. As a voting block for the Dems, it is in their best interests for the media to keep this hidden.
In Yisrael, you would be very surprised to the answers you would get when questioning people on their views. Are there libs in Yisrael? Unfortunately, yes. But nowhere the amount you seem to think.
Why don't you send $20 to JPFO--Jews for the preservation of Firearms Ownership?
We are out here and plenty of us are fighting for non-liberal causes.
Please excuse my post, but I'm laying in a hospital bed after surgery and on the good stuff.
Phuck the liberals, Phuck Chuck Schumer, Phuck Debbie Wasserman Schultz, FBHO, FHRC, Phuck Muslims,
and Phuck THE UN!
We are out here.

I joined the JPFO years ago as a life member. They're a no compromise group.

Benito is definitely not my BFF, but I can say with a good degree of certainty he is not an anti-semite.
He and I have gone round both here and on Light Fighter because I'm not a fan of the Israeli government and the results of the Zionist movement.
I have no problem with the Jewish faith beyond the normal Christian desire to see them saved by profession of faith in Our Savior, Jesus.
Israel used to be very liberal, we have a country that was started by socialist and commies.
However since 1948 two or three things have happened that have turned the vast majority of Israelis very conservative.
1. living with Arab terror for since before we had a State.
2. Anyone that had hopes for peace starting in 1992 with the Madrid peace conference, has seen those hopes dashed as thousands of Israelis have been murdered for the crime of being a Jew in the ?land that G-D gave us.
3. Prosperity has burned a lot of the socialism out of a lot of people.
In the last USA election dual American Israeli citizens voted for Trump like 75%.
If you want to say the non Orthodox community in the USA is very liberal, your correct. But they will be gone in a generation.
I would bet you if we went down a list of issues I am more conservative than most of the members here.

In my experience, just anecdotal, the most liberal/progressive/anti legal gun Jews are relatively Secular. They are non-practicing Jews, or take the religion very lightly. The STATE has replaced religion for them, and often, it seems, their character erodes. This is true for non-Jews in some cases as well.

Yoni, I found it somewhat interesting, and revealing, that in a previous post you responded that you would not discuss theology after numerous rants about how eff'ed up non-Orthodox Jews were. All that being said, I need to discuss theology a little in response to your statements above.
'The Land God Gave Us.' In reading the Old Testament, I must have glossed over the part where God said 'to leave and come back to whenever you want.' For whatever reason, most of the Jewish folks left. The 'remnant Jews' lived in relative peaceful coexistence with others in the land until the Aliyah's began.
As a practicing Christian, I believe the whole return thing is rendered moot with the Birth, Life and Crucifixion of Jesus Christ. Theologically, this is where we part ways.
For those reasons, I'm okay with a bunch of Jewish folks living in a region, I am not okay with a religious theocracy of any type, otherwise why are we getting our collective panties in a wad over an Islamic theocracy?
I'm not willing to let Israel get overrun, I agree with the United States long stated guarantee of Israel's sovereignty, but my historical view of things is that Israel has not been as good as friend to the United States as the United States has been to Israel. Forgetting the whole USS Liberty thing, as well as the spying and theft, contrast Israel's support of the US to Australia's, not even close.
Continuing, I understand that the Jewish people have been unfairly and unmercifully prosecuted throughout history. I didn't do it. I know myself well enough to say that I wouldn't have done it had I been alive in those times and places.
So, having studied the history of the area and Zionism to an extent, I'm not as susceptible to the whole 'but, but Jewish, but, but, Biblical prophecy' guilt trip as others in excusing violation of international law in seizing and occupying land and as an excuse for basic human rights violations.
There is plenty of blame to go around, Israel needs to accept her portion and move on.
Regarding the dual citizens, in my view they shouldn't be allowed to vote in America. They need to make up their minds whether they are American or Israeli. I, for one, am tired of that special interest group trying to unduly influence American foreign policy.
JMO.

Almost made it a whole thread without someone bringing up fictional books. SMH...
26Inf,
The land of given to my forefathers and their descendants according the the Torah, in addition to this Hevron, Temple Mount and Schem were also bought for large sums of money .
The Jews that left Israel never left Israel of our own free will, meaning hey I am tired of this land it is time for me to go someplace else. We were forced out after military losses due to our sins.
For the most part Israel which was renamed after the Roman defeat to Palistina after the Philistein, which were not Arabs but Phoenician by if I remember correctly Titus. Was for the life of the Ottoman Empire a backwater empty land full of malaria and swamps. Many non Jews such as Christian missinaries to the area and even Mark Twain document this.
Also the Jews that lived there were forced to pay Dhimie tax to the Ottoman Empire, the tax paid by non Muslims.
Regarding friendship between Israel and the USA, both countries have spied on each other, fact. All countries spy.
I think Israelis have a higher degree of regard for their friendship of the USA than you think. I for one would like to see American aid to Israel terminated, and the latest aid package was a joke as it will cost 1000's of Israeli jobs. American aid to Israel is corporate welfare for Boeing, McDonald Douglas, Lockheed and others.
Regarding dual citizenship I am one, it means double taxes, but it also means potential of double the opportunity.
Voting we have discussed this in the past, I like the Israeli law of no absentee voting for those not living inside the country. As a matter of principle I never voted in a USA election when I was living in Israel.
I bring up the Orthodox because I am sick and tired of being painted by the same brush as the liberal so called Jews that have nothing in common with me. I fail to see how a person can give up the values of the Torah which are conservative in nature become a Marxist progressive and still say they are a Jew. I am not saying they have to keep all the religious rules such as kosher and shabbat etc., that is between them and G-D. But when you put out liberal ideas this to me is counter the values of a Jew.
I don't understand your statement of blame, I as Israeli admit we have made our share of mistakes as has every government in the world. But I will close with this if the Palestinians adopted non violence and wanted to live together in real peace, it would have happened a long time ago, On the other hand if Israel laid down our weapons as a sign of good will, we would all be murdered. Which thank G-D is not something Americans have had to deal with, for it really is not much fun dealing with it.
Why do these threads always end up with Zealots. on both sides. arguing religion?
How about we just take it as fact that this woman did well and not argue about the nuances of what you think or what your prejudices are?
Very little difference between this stuff and the LGBT / Dreamer crap you see on the other side. Two sides of the same coin, just different pictures.
