what if somehow tommrow we will sign some documents with the palestinians that will promice us peace if we will evacuate the setelments. Now suppose the setelments population will deny the goverment decision and they will send the IDF to move them. Dont you think that there will be soliders that will refuse to that order? will you think THAN that its ok to refuse? I mean if you think whats the idf is doing the the teritory is wrong ( and thats totaly ok thing to think) the Idf is not the address to send your objection. The Idf is a tool not a policy maker. Its not ok that soliders refuse to serev because this is move us very very close , much closer then you think to anrchy. If some one wish to object the goverment policy he can join / found a party, or vote for one. Im not saing we all should support the same ideals and ideas because that will be not a decmoc' but that there are things that are destroying the decmocratiy itsef, and as a selfdef' democratiy it has the right to protect itself.
I guess that most of you will agree that most of the time the majority is the policy maker ( of course there are some exceptions ) and the democratic ways ( not - we wont do anything that the majority, which i dont feel belong to , will decide ) to object the current policy.
The way of refusment is a DANGERUS one
