Inspired by Gaza war, women seek combat troop donors to father their children
An Israeli sperm bank has reported a marked change recently in what women want from a potential donor — not tall, dark and handsome, but rather military background, preferably in a combat unit.
Rambam Medical Center said there was a sharp increase in requests for samples donated by combat soldiers, or at the very least, those who have served in the IDF, made by women aiming for insemination treatment, Ynet reported on Sunday.
The military trend is in addition to the usual deciding criteria such as hair color, eye color, skin color, height, education, and health background.
“Women build for themselves an ideal profile and picture of who the future father of their children will be,” explained Dina Amnipour, director of the Ramban sperm bank laboratory.
Amnipour suggested that the ongoing military campaign in the Gaza Strip may have given many of the women new insights into what makes a man.
Since Israel launched Operation Protective Edge in the Gaza Strip on July 8, the country’s two major television channels have featured an almost constant stream of updates from the front, including stories of soldiers who showed bravery in the heat of battle.
“A man who served in a combat unit comes across as someone who has impressive physical attributes that live up to the genetic aspirations of the women,” she explained. “Generally speaking, he will be physically fit and in good health, in addition to other important attributes.”
Every month, 60 women apply for sperm donations, and in recent days, about half of them have asked for donors with a combat background, whereas before Operation Protective Edge the request hardly ever came up. Currently, combat service has become as important as height and intelligence.
Curious medical staff checked their records and discovered that all of the current donors in the sperm bank had served in the army and half were in combat units, which should come as quite a relief for potential mothers-to-be.
This is fascism. This is what fascism looks like. It presents itself as "neutral" to pretend it is "unbiased" while actively worshiping the military and encouraging women to have more children (who will then grow up to join the military). This is how it gets into people's brains and gets them to stop thinking and feeling for themselves and start only thinking and feeling what those at the top want them to.
If things continue in this way, we'll start to see Israel pushing their own version of "Kinder, Kitche, Kurche" on women soon enough. But it will be presented as a "women's rights" thing, a way to "protect" women from the evil Hamas.
It has been fascism for 70 years. Albert Einstein (a somewhat notable jewish man that fled nazi germany some may have heard of) called it fascist in 1948:
Among the most disturbing political phenomena of our times is the emergence in the newly created state of Israel of the "Freedom Party" (Tnuat Haherut), a political party closely akin in its organization, methods, political philosophy and social appeal to the Nazi and Fascist parties. It was formed out of the membership and following of the former Irgun Zvai Leumi, a terrorist, right-wing, chauvinist organization in Palestine.
The current visit of Menachem Begin, leader of this party, to the United States is obviously calculated to give the impression of American support for his party in the coming Israeli elections, and to cement political ties with conservative Zionist elements in the United States. Several Americans of national repute have lent their names to welcome his visit. It is inconceivable that those who oppose fascism throughout the world, if correctly informed as to Mr. Begin's political record and perspectives, could add their names and support to the movement he represents.
Before irreparable damage is done by way of financial contributions, public manifestations in Begin's behalf, and the creation in Palestine of the impression that a large segment of America supports Fascist elements in Israel, the American public must be informed as to the record and objectives of Mr. Begin and his movement.
The public avowals of Begin's party are no guide whatever to its actual character. Today they speak of freedom, democracy and anti-imperialism, whereas until recently they openly preached the doctrine of the Fascist state. It is in its actions that the terrorist party betrays its real character; from its past actions we can judge what it may be expected to do in the future.
...
Within the Jewish community they have preached an admixture of ultranationalism, religious mysticism, and racial superiority. Like other Fascist parties they have been used to break strikes, and have themselves pressed for the destruction of free trade unions. In their stead they have proposed corporate unions on the Italian Fascist model.
...
The discrepancies between the bold claims now being made by Begin and his party, and their record of past performance in Palestine bear the imprint of no ordinary political party. This is the unmistakable stamp of a Fascist party for whom terrorism (against Jews, Arabs, and British alike), and misrepresentation are means, and a "Leader State" is the goal.
This party has ruled Israel for 70 years. They have built their ideal fascist state this whole time. Given the opportunity when they are done with Palestine they will do Lebensraum across the Middle East.
Oh, I didn't mean to imply that they "turned fascist" recently or something, though I can see how what I said could be interpreted that way. It's always been like this, and you're absolutely right, their idea of "Greater Israel" will not stop at Palestine.
Israel: "We're not a culture of violence! You're antisemitic for suggesting that we're anything but peace loving practicing jews, you Hitler!"
