Five Ways to Penetrate an Israeli Military Base

They say the I.D.F. is known to be top secret and impenetrable. Well, anything is possible and there are a few ways you can get onto their highly-guarded military bases. P.S. - It's easier to do this if you're a chick.

  1. Have a fling with a soldier whose best friend is on guard duty. (The parking lot at a base in Tel Aviv is a bit uncomfortable, but fun place to "hang out.")



  2. Make sure the upper ranks (i.e. Captain) have your phone number. They will use it when they are bored and ask you to bring a couple of friends to hang out on the base. (The lounge-loft at a base in Jerusalem, has comfortable couches to watch television on).



  3. Borrow your friend's uniform and i.d. and walk onto the base like a normal soldier. Act nonchalant. It may be best to come with snacks (i.e. Soda, chips, or candy) to bribe the guard and to provide an excuse for being off the base.



  4. Go through the Hasbara (I.D.F. Spokesperson) unit to arrange a group tour or special interview. (Although, with all of the Kasaam rockets being sent over, the base inside Gaza, near Sderot, may be off limits.)



  5. Join the Army, Air Force, Navy, or Border Police. That way, you're legit!

Very nice article, sounds like it is as easy to get on base in Israel as it is on some Navy bases here in the U.S.

I'd be curious to know if they have the same ban on homosexuals in the military as the U.S. currently does?

No ban on homosexuals... in fact, you can be in the Israeli Army and be openly gay. No problem. There's actually a lot of bisexuality in the Army, too...

I don't have enough experiences with Marines, yet. Perhaps you can give me pointers, Tim?

women serve in the IDF too, and this article could benefit the "stronger sex" if they want a Sabra soldier girl to visit...this article brings to mind the song: lonely, I'm mister lonely, I have no body to ca alll my owwwwn.....

Lioness, perhaps you learned from your experiences? I think you forgot to mention the word, "flirt". Who took that nice picture of Liad and Menachem?

Great work!
