Del Shahar Pe'er joins the IDF In an event that she described as more exciting than playing Maria Sharapova, tennis star Shahar Pe'er was drafted into the Israel Defense Forces bright and early Sunday morning http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?pagename=JPost%2FJPArticle%2FShowFull&cid=1129540635307 I take it all back - Dubai was RIGHT to ban her and RIGHT to allow Andy Ram.
Chocoholic Yeah this is 4 years old! How do you know she hasn't had a change of heart since then? As usual, people round here like to only see one side of a story, and condemn them for life for one action.
Chocoholic If you want a more up to date story on another high profile person, what about female rap artist M.I.A supporting the Tamil Tigers?
Del How do you know she hasn't had a change of heart since then? How do you know she has had a change of heart since then? Do you think people join the army as casually as they buy underwear?
naruto Yeah this is 4 years old! How do you know she hasn't had a change of heart since then? As usual, people round here like to only see one side of a story, and condemn them for life for one action.

gamercowboy A large majority of Israel's citizens are drafted into the military. "Conscription extends at present to all able-bodied persons, as they reach the age of 18 - three years for males and two for females." http://www.mfa.gov.il/MFA/Facts%20About%20Israel/State/The%20Israel%20Defense%20Forces
Chocoholic And...... this is normal for many countries still! If you don'tdo your service by the time you reach 35, then you go to prison!
smoggie so she is in the army after all huh ... I guess humpy is shocked by this news, cant see him around. choc darling, give it up ,well ya As far as i know there is conscription in Israel so she would have to serve, and indeed, would see it as her duty. What is wrong with that?
uaekid nothing is wrong really, but would you put 1 Israeli Soldier in the middle of 1000's of Palestinians ???????? very bad idea smoggie no one would see here as a player.
smoggie nothing is wrong really, but would you put 1 Israeli Soldier in the middle of 1000's of Palestinians ???????? very bad idea smoggie no one would see here as a player. it's back to the security issue. She is proud of her country, wants to play tennis....I don't see the problem. The UAE should go out of their way to protect her. As you said yesterday....the real issue is not security. That is a lie. it is the fact that she is a Jew.

That is a lie. it is the fact that she is a Jew. ..she is an isreali soldier who might killed a palastinian during the fight between both sides, now if im a palastinian and i saw here in the street i dont know what i might do to here..also we dont have any political relationship with isreal so she is not allowed to enter UAE even if she is a sport woman..now will i be able to get a visa if i want to go to israel .answer is NO..so we are even..
Del As far as i know there is conscription in Israel so she would have to serve, and indeed, would see it as her duty. What is wrong with that? Nothing really, except she described it as 'more exciting than playing Maria Sharapova'. What's 'More exciting...'? Blowing up Palestinians?

Well unless she said "Blowing up Palestinians" we do not know...maybe she meant training on the assault course
