  Meretz MK Avshalom Vilan proposes amendments to IDF pledge of allegience
20/08/2007

Following 12 soldiers' refusal to evacuate settlers from Hebron's marketplace, Meretz MK Avshalom Vilan proposed amending the IDF oath to ensure that soldiers follow only the orders of their commanders, not their rabbis, according to the Jerusalem Post.




The soldiers who would not evacuate hundreds of right wing activists from Hebron two weeks ago were said to be adhering to the advice and responding to the encouragement of their rabbis.
