Rabbi Steven Pruzansky said:
“The IDF [Israeli Army] soldier fulfills three mitzvot
that cannot be fulfilled by the soldier in any other army:
[1] the settlement (Yishuv) of Eretz Yisrael,
[2] preserving Jewish life (Pikuach Nefesh),
[3] and Kiddush HaShem, the sanctification of G-d’s Name,
implicit in the Jewish people exercising sovereignty over our homeland.”
