Adding that many if not most are willing to defend Israel but unwilling

to be aggressors and part of a brutal and dangerous offense/occupation. Good post; Thank you!

In many of the cases, the refusal is simply a result of youth who are not interested in military service and wish to pursue other activities.  We have that here in the USA too.  Actually, probably every country has a certain amount of that.
