orders, while adhering to the laws of the state and norms of human
dignity, and honoring the values of the State of Israel as a Jewish and
democratic state.

Spirit of the IDF-Definition and Origins

The Spirit of the IDF is the identity card of the IDF values, which
should stand as the foundation of all of the activities of every IDF
soldier,
on regular or reserve duty.

The Spirit of the IDF and the guidelines of operation resulting from it
are the ethical code of the IDF. The Spirit of the IDF will be applied by
the IDF, its soldiers, its officers, its units and corps to shape their
mode
of
action. They will behave, educate and evaluate themselves and others
according to the Spirit of the IDF.

The Spirit of the IDF draws on four sources:

  1st.    The tradition of the IDF and its military heritage as the Israel
  Defense Forces.


  2nd.    The tradition of the State of Israel, its democratic principles,
  laws and institutions.


  3rd.    The tradition of the Jewish People throughout their history.


  4th.    Universal moral values based on the value and dignity of human
life.
