Article lacks list[edit]

This article lacks a list of, and articles about, those who have served as the Chief Army Chaplain of the IDF since 1948, after Rabbi Shlomo Goren. Articles are still needed for rabbis:

rabbinate authority[edit]

I removed the controversy section since it was POV laced and based on editorials, not 'news'. The general issue is about a perceived/apparent conflict between the traditional job of the rabbinate and the new direction that Rabbi Ronski has taken in adding educational aspects to the unit. That would be a legitimate section to the article, not some inciteful anti-rabbinate POV writing. --Shuki (talk) 23:26, 15 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The piece below is the debated one. The first paragraph is based on news reporting and is completely in place. The next two paragraphs deal with reactions to those pamphlets, and are based, naturally on editorials (since they are the reaction). Again, this is appropriate. IMO the one by Hitchens is redundant. If there are editorials or op-eds that support these action of the Military Rabbinate, they can mentioned. Mashkin (talk) 00:36, 16 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

2009 incitement controversy[edit]

According to Israeli human rights group Yesh Din, during the 2009 Gaza conflict the military rabbinate distributed a religious booklet that labeled Palestinians as "murderers" and warned against showing mercy to them. [1] The publications compared modern-day Palestinians to the Biblical Philistines and denied the historical existence of a Palestinian national identity. [2] According to Yesh Din, the booklet could be interpreted as justifying violations of international laws of war.

A Haaretz editorial described the booklets as "sermons that preach, in the name of ostensibly religious values, the killing of civilians" and which "opposes all the combat values formulated in the IDF throughout the generations". The booklet includes sermons written by religious Zionist leader Shlomo Aviner.[3] It also accuses the material of contributing to an atmosphere in which extremist sermons by Yitzhak Ginsburg praising mass murderer Baruch Goldstein (described as "chauvinist and racist incitement") are disseminated.[3]

Christopher Hitchens has compared Rontzski to Baruch Goldstein, claiming that Rontzki shows indicators of being "a truly determined racist and fundamentalist". [4]Hitchens also predicted that religious settler movement will influence the IDF and advocated that no more American aid be funneled to settlers.
