The Path of Most Resistance

It's long been said that in Israel undertaking military service is the supreme path towards integrating into society. Historically there have always been some elements of truth to this. The army has certainly done its best in trying to bring new immigrants and soldiers from minority groups, such as Ethiopians, Druzim and Bedouins into a position to succeed once they finish their service. The existence of specific training bases like Michve Alon are a testament to this as well. However, as it turns out, in today's Israel, acceptance into wider Israeli society is not so much of a given anymore, if it ever even was to begin with for some.
