Can see that back firing a little. If a soldier does have somewhere else to go (foreign passport) and the fighting on the front is bleak, will they flee or stay and risk being killed by their own side? It’s got to be an incentive to leave for some. Some will be in it for the fight, but many settlers will be in it for an easier life. As soon as it’s not the easier option, I would bet that many will leave.
This is probably why Israel enacted the Hannibal plan, which is essentially that they will kill IOF soldiers before they let them be captured.
What is iof?
Israeli Offense/Occupation Force
Nice.
So what were you saying? Israel intends to kill its own instead of letting them get captured?
Yeah, that’s the basis of the “Hannibal” protocol: IOF soldiers are allowed to do everything in their power in order to prevent a capture.
