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.
Probably she has joined on a permanent basis oga... It is only compulsory to serve for two years after which you remain a reserve and go about your regular life. There may also have been nationality challenges since foreigners cannot serve in the Israeli army.

Finally its not a strange law its just a very smart and necessary one that allows a small country like Israel match its enemies in terms of manpower within a short timeframe.

HungerBAD:
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.
Good Lawd, the guys I am talking about looks so calm and mild. One wouldn't even suspect that they're already trained machines.

I'll call my mumu friend that was doing anyhow and pass this message. When he returns to Jordan, he better respect himself for all this Israelites side.

airsaylongcon:
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.
I read such too, i also read you are not really a Jew if your mom isn't and if born outside Israel wont be qualified for their citizenship

its a compulsory assignment to serve in the army as an Israelite when you are 19years...afterwards they go for advanced training in Nepal mountainous regions... ours is mere jamboree.. the NYSC is an avenue to harvest competent, discipline and cultured militia but the reverse is the case. I don't know it Nigeria is a country per she..Nothing works

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.



so they are progressive because they choose to be a matriarchal society?
offcourse they are progressive but being matriarchal shouldn't be the reason of their progress..

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.
