Heh, you don't get to have "strikes" in the military, although that's a lovely thought.
Trying to organize a strike would be called a rebellion, and get you court martialed.

I've done my military duty in the IDF. Nothing heroic. A Shlav-Betnik, now dismissed.

I never had to deal with the MPs but this sounds ridiculous!

Maybe a wildcat strike by all enlisted soldiers is in order. Someone should organize a call for all soldiers to put mud on their boots, untuck their shirts and wear their berrets backwards starting sometime in the future until the IDF

We have a like-wise hunting game...except we used to play it on the school ground in basic school (from 7 yrs to 12yrs).

I never knew about that. I happen to work for Israelis (an "Authorized Agent" for Cingular Wireless), and one of them told me she used to be in the "Police", though I'm not sure if she meant the dreaded MPs or the regular police (or are they one and the same?).

Cute post. Ya know, my husband always seemed to have a dislike for these police when we would see them while vacationing in Israel, and I never realized why (not sure why I never thought to get the full story). Guess it has been the same thing for a while (he served in the late 80's).
