Liberman: IDF not promoting ‘feminist agenda’ with mixed-gender units
Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman slams accusations the IDF is promoting a “feminist agenda” by maintaining mixed-gender units, a practice roundly condemned by the country’s ultra-Orthodox community.
“The IDF is not advancing any agenda, not a feminist or chauvinistic one,” he says at the inauguration of a combat training school in the Negev.
“The IDF has one agenda: Israel’s security, so its considerations are solely operational ones,” Liberman says.
