they were used as pawns by your government.

I know that it is impossible to discuss this issue without bringing up politics but I would ask that politics be left out of this, this post is about following or disobeying orders not about whether settling the gaza strip was right or not.

Why would you refuse those orders? Doesn't your clear duty lie with protecting the lives of citizens? Especially when they were used as pawns by your government

The thing you have to understand is that these peopole were not forced there or sent there.
They went their willingly, everyone who is in the gaza strip is their because they wanted to go.
Admittadly every goverment offered tax benefits for those living outside the green line.
These peopole have lived there entire lives their, built houses,communities and businesses there.
Not all of them will be able to relocate their bussiness or farm in time, others feel angered at the thought that they would have to abandon their homes where they grew up for the past 20-30 years.
Those that dont want to leave will have to be forcibly evicted from their homes.
Homes which were built in dangerous areas, at the goverments behest
(both right and left wing goverments). where they lost friends to countless terrorist attacks.
That means that after the negotiations end and it is clear that peopole are not willing to leave, the police backed by the army will have to physically remove peopole from their homes.
These peopole are not going to be willing to leave just because someone who has never lived their tell them to leave.
This means that the army will have to go in and pull out kicking and screaming whole families.Young children Brtohers and sisters husbands and wives and probably even some elderly. It will not be pretty.
In short that is why.
If there are any LEO's who would be willing to share their experinces on eviction I would be gratefull, I think it would add greatly to this dicussion.
To JM thanks youre comment

Really answered my questioun, there is no easy answer, and it just helped me to reinforce the decsioion I made.
In Basic Training (which I never went through) it is pounded into your'e head that you should always disobey an unlawfull order.
Of course what they dont tell you is that an order will only be found unlawfull years after it was given and generally than it is too late to help you.
Once again I want to thank everyone who posted.
You helped me to tackle a very difficult and troublsome moral questioun that was plaguing me for some time.
