kill innocent children, men and women.

Funny, because IDF soldiers must follow The Spirit of the IDF, and carry a card sized copy at all times. 

The Spirit of the IDF includes 3 fundamental values:

1. Defense of the State, its Citizens and Residents – The purpose of the IDF is to protect the existence of the state of Israel, its independence, and the security of its citizens and residents.
2. Patriotism and Loyalty to the State – Service in the IDF is based on patriotism and on commitment and devotion to the State of Israel – a democratic state which is the national home of the Jewish people – and to its citizens and residents.
3. Human Dignity – The IDF and its soldiers are obligated to preserve human dignity. All human beings are of inherent values regardless of race, creed, nationality, gender, status or role.

and ten additional values.

1. Human Life

2. Purity of Arms

3. Personal Example

4. Responsibility

5. Comradeship

6. Professionalism

7. Discipline

8. Vocation

9. Reliability

10. Dedication to Mission and the Pursuit of Victory

These values resonate throughout the IDF and are continually implemented in the actions of its soldiers. A particularly moving example is the story of Maj. Roi Klein, of blessed memory, who jumped on a live grenade in the fiercely-waged battle of Bint Jbeil during the Second Lebanon War of 2006. Sacrificing his own life to spare those of his soldiers, Maj. Klein exhibited a heroism that truly embodies the values expressed in the “Spirit of the IDF”.

Of course there are always going to be rogue soldiers, but targeting and “kill[ing] innocent children, men and women” is unacceptable and not tolerated by the IDF.
