Pretty.

Hungerbad has a thing for a woman in Uniform. Well, all except the women wearing the Nigeria Police Uniform.

Your father was happy you decided to join?you had no option sweetheart. All Israeli's must serve the Country.

Joining the Israeli armed forces is not optional for both males and females,as it is compulsory they serve.

Israel and 23 other Countries in the world have this strange law.

It is the law.


I think the compulsion is for full blooded Israelis. You know that Arab Israelis and Ultra orthodox Jews are exempt. I'm surprised they let her join because there's often the insistence that only those born of a jew (mother is a jew) can join. I stand to be corrected on the last assertion though.

Met a Rabbi or two when I was in Jordan. Very intelligent people. They didn't even care that I'm irreligious and they didn't try to preach to me. But we related fine for I and my friends were like the only dark skinned guys in the whole place, lols...

So those men that were laughing with me will be saying in their minds - The bloody black civilians gringrin

Yes they were. You have to understand the reason why, and that is because Israel is a very small Country surrounded by hostile nations, and so all hands is trained just in case they get attacked.

The street cleaner in Israel is a trained soldier.

HungerBad she could choose to stay in Nigeria

Yes she could, but she would not be given her Israeli Passport, which is a very powerful passport. It is a Constitutional Requirement, and is a requirement in being an Israeli(by Birth or Naturalization)

Isreal is a matriarchal society. To be naturally Jewish, your mother must be Jewish not even the father.
It shows how progressive they have become in recent years.

AMAZING: Meet Lieutenant Toby Cohen The First And Only Nigerian Woman To Serve In Israel’s Army.

The 21-year-old was born in Nigeria to a Nigerian mother and an Israeli father.

Cohen was living with her parents and sister in Kano, before she migrated to Israel.

Cohen said: “I always wanted to come to Israel, ever since I was a small child, I wanted a deeper connection, to understand what ‘Israel’ is, and not just through stories.”

Despite the fact that moving to Israel was dream come true for the woman, it was still hard to adjust to the life in another country.

She said: “New immigrants are often embarrassed and ashamed to speak, because they may say something wrong and I was one of them but at some point I realised that I couldn’t go on like this.

I made a lot of mistakes along the way, and it was hard, but it was worth it.”

The young lady learnt Hebrew and her friends helped her to adjust into the Israeli society.

According to Cohen, her father was happy about her decision to become an officer in the Israeli army.

The soldier’s father was also an officer in the Israeli army.

She said: “He was just as emotional as I was. For him it was a dream come true, and his being there really helped me.” “My mother and my entire family attended the officers’ graduation ceremony.

It is very touching to be the first woman officer from Nigeria in the IDF. Obviously I have fallen in love with Israel. This is my home and I see myself continuing my life here.”

Cohen served as an operations sergeant in the Homefront Command and was later accepted into the officers’ training course.

Her duty as a Deputy Training Officer in Haifa region is to guide people on how to act during natural disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, as well as emergencies such as rocket attacks or the threat of a biological/chemical weapon.

Re: Pic. Meet The First Nigerian Woman To Serve As A Lieutenant In The Israeli Army. by sagod: 8:23am On Oct 26, 2017
No! That she was born in Nigeria by a Nigerian woman does not make her a Nigerian, but only gives her certain citizenship privileges.

So women in Nigeria have no right to confer Nigerian citizenship on her child if the father is a foreigner?

Why don't you read before you argue, have you rear the revised Nigerian constitution as regards Nigerian citizenship?
