Brigadier General Goldfus deviated from the norm, but one thing is certain - he spoke from the hearts of the fighters - voila! News. Opinions differ regarding the manner in which the commander of the 98th Division, who surprised the senior IDF officials with his words, should be treated.

There are those who think that a command remark or a reprimand should suffice, and there are "formers" who claim that they would have terminated his position immediately, similar to the conduct within the American military in response to such incidents.
