yes but they but get three times the assistance in Germany as they do so is the issue.. and yes I absolutely feel for the young Israeli conscientious Objectors and admire their courage they are Israels real hope for a future and yes I feel for Israeli elderly living in poverty and even more so by the fact the memory of their suffering is constantly exploited as a propaganda tool

Mobilisation Order by Emperor Haile Selassie - Abyssinia 1936
' Everyone will now be mobilised and all boys old enough to carry a spear will be sent to Addis Ababa '
' Married men will take their wives to carry food and to cook. Those without wives will take a woman without a husband. Woman with small babies need not go '
' The blind, those who cannot walk, or for any reason cannot carry a spear, are exempted.'
' Any one found at home after receipt of this order will be hanged.'
So much for modern military motivational techniques!
