I don`t agree with the view the IDF should be a social service agency. That is not its primary task. Its primary task is to defend the country. Of course, if its at all possible for Jews who are handicapped to contribute to Israel`s well-being, they should be encouraged to do so. Every human being is made in G-d`s image and even the lesser of us are still His Children.
