Motivating the troops, Israeli style

The Independent: Army rabbi 'gave out hate leaflet to troops'
The Israeli army's chief rabbinate gave soldiers preparing to enter the Gaza Strip a booklet implying that all Palestinians are their mortal enemies and advising them that cruelty is sometimes a "good attribute".

When people say that Palestinians are religious fanatics, one would do well to keep this stuff in mind as well.

Some others have commented on this news item as well. For a frightening look at the mental health of one particular man, go here.
