Two things. This is what you get for doing an apartheid for over 80 years and following it up with a genocide. No pity from me. Secondly those are some high numbers suggesting things aren't going that well for them
Indeed, these are shockingly high given that their entire army is something like 170k officially. If this is the rate loss for the past 8 months, they are absolutely fucked.
Active soldiers yes, but they have something like 1.5 million reservists. I'd be shocked if most of this number wasn't conscripts.
edit: 1.5 million men and women each according to NATOpedia. And jesus fuck, they have a section about minorities in the IOF, including vegans
This is what I mean when I say “there are almost 0 Israeli civilians and most Israelis are valid military targets”

They have a section for down syndrome soldiers
It's a strong western tradition

Back when I read r/vegan we got occasional vegan-washing posts about the IDF, but they got shot down pretty hard.
I'm guessing the quality of the reserves is pretty poor, so casualties would go up dramatically once they start getting fed into the war in large numbers.
This is why I always hate r/upliftingnews
Is it great that 70,000 IDF soldiers are disabled? Absolutely. But why do they have access to care in the first place?
Just so they wouldn't appear as casualities to the war, the moment the war ends they'll cut all their lines and let them die
I wonder how many of them are stuffed with organs stolen from Palestinians.
Now I'm just imagining all of them looking like Invader Zim in that episode where he was stealing organs
Show
It would be more meaningful if I wasn't pretty sure every IDF member was reporting to rehab after hearing a gun go off to take themselves out of a combat zone.
