Professors for a Strong Israel
Statement to the Press - 6 September 2005
Re: We have no other army
Professors for a Strong Israel rejects completely the call by a group of youths
to refuse induction into the Israel Defense Force.
Even after Prime Minister Sharon misused the army and used it anti-democratically
to expel citizens from their homes, it is imperative to protect the army
equally well from Sharon and from those who refuse.
The struggle against the expulsion that was and against the expulsions that
Sharon is yet planning is not a struggle against the army.
The welfare and defense of Israel depend in large measure on the strength
of the IDF.
