The following excerpt is from the Guardian newspaper from 2003,
A group of Israeli airforce pilots declared yesterday that they would refuse to fly missions which could endanger civilians in the West Bank and Gaza Strip.
The 27 pilots sent a letter to the commander of Israel’s airforce refusing to carry out duties, which include track and kill operations, in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. One of the pilots told Israeli television that the letter said: “We, veteran pilots and active pilots alike…are opposed to carrying out illegal and immoral attacks, of the type carried out by Israel in the territories.
“We, who have been educated to love the state of Israel refuse to take part in airforce attacks in civilian population centres. We refuse to continue harming innocent civilians.”
I suppose that since 2003 the Israeli air force recruitment policy is more strict and anyone with an ounce of decency and integrity is shown the door immediately.
Now I`m just waiting for sh*tsqueek to begin a reply with..
Since Oct 7th…yada yada yada..
