I thank zahavasdad for remembering Entebbe !!! Over one hundred jews were saved by the ISRAELI army. And Rav Hutner zz’l and the people of all three planes-that were indeed destroyed- were taken prisoner and ultimately the Jordanian army freed them- by force, when they launched Black september to destroy the Palestinians. There have been many cases of the ISRAELI army storming planes to free Jews (Barak led on of these raids) and the only reason why it was the Jordanians is because it was in Jordan and the Israelis relied upon the Jordanian army.
Lastly- to choppy- please look at the rambam (hilchos melochim, perek 5, mishne 1)and you will see that today’s army is absolutely busy doing a milchemes mitzvah- You show your ignorance by denying this.
