  1. I really dont try to present the conflict in the middle east or show one of the sides in a objective way, all i wanted to do is to share my pictures from the time i was in the Army, that is all, and if some people are not comftable with it i can understand them, but it will not prevant me to post these kind of messages in the future.

    What i'm saying is that i dont hate arabs or palestinians in particular and i dont try to provoc anyone.

    Hope i made it clear,

    Oren.

  2. Dear Mr. ant!

    I really was in the IDF, for the matter of fact, i was a gunner in MERKAVA Mk.2B, and i have a friend who got killed while his tank ran over a 100 Kg demo charge which was hidden in the sand dunes.

    For all the rest, you're kinda right when you say that it's not a real urban warfare, but there are some places in the occupide west bank and gaza strip, which are real hell, serious fighting in the streets, including regular and home make AT weapons used by the palestinians.

    Anyway....today is the jewish new year, so i bless you with SHANA TOVA (happy new year), and i hope that our war will finish soon.

    I noticed in Irak just recently that the great wonders of mordern construction as the best tanks in the world today with that best trained amerikan troops in it are called.....could not at all take a town. So nothing really changed, since towns and cultivated land is what most wars are fought for and about. One needs men for that, that can be pushed around and let be digged in like mise. (vietnam)...Oh, and machines took the Afghan lowland but the country is still not freed in the highlands.

    Hey!

    i just wanted to tell that the MREKAVA tank is highly effective in urban warfare, and i say it from my own experience, i participated is many operations which involved urban fighting, and i tell you, we gave them hell!!

    i hope i'm not offending

    any palestinian members

    of the forums.

  4. Israeli defence forces (IDF) 2000-2003.

    I joined the 7'th armored division at july 2000,

    since than i was involed in many armored actions all over the west bank and the Gaza strip, i guess that i am the only one here with actual combat experiance.

    I also participade in advanced tank shooting course which in there i shoot all ranges bitween

    200 m' and 6000 m'.

    I was a gunner in Merkava Mk2.

  5. Hey all!

    Thank you for the reply!

    I was stationed in many places which include few Palestinian citys, villeges and reffugie camps, i was also stationed at the Israeli-Lebenes border.

    In my service i used the "Galil SAR" which is a short barrel version of the original Galil AR, you will be happy to know that this weapon in highly relayble and fits exactly to a tank crew member job, it doesnt break at all, even not the few plastic parts.
