Some military reservists, most notably pilots, have refused to attend training as a form of protest against the judicial reform. Do they have the right to do this?
The numbers, which are in question, come as IDF reservists have vowed to strike in response to the Israeli judicial reform.
750 reservists, comprised of a mix of Air Force, Unit 8200 intelligence and special forces personnel, have stopped answering their call-ups for training.
The real reason reservists are striking is this; Israeli fighter pilots are very vulnerable to prosecution for war crimes under international criminal law.
NATIONAL AFFAIRS: Refusal to serve, refusal to show up for reserve duty, or refusal to partake in certain IDF operations isn't new, but this time it's over policies unrelated to the military.
MIDDLE ISRAEL: The zealot attacks regardless of his resources, training or skill.
Israel is far healthier than protesters would have us believe. So, beware the doomsday discourse about irreparable depredations in Israel’s democratic moorings.
