My friend in Haifa just received a letter from the govt there, as did his father (both veterans as most men are there). Orders to turn in their rifles - without compensation - to their local gun dealer. Apparently there will be no more hunting permits allowed either. So far no mention that they are taking away handguns. Amazing in a country surrounded and infiltrated by enemies.

No link.
Can't get a thing on google....absolutely nothing on hunting licenses.

They have some pretty atrocious gun control in Israel...which makes absolutely no sense.

Quoted: They giving a reason for this insanity? I'm texting back and forth with him now. He says that the govt thinks that the army and police are enough to provide for security of the people (where have we heard that before...). Apparently competitive shooters can still own under certain conditions, everyone else has to turn their's in when their rifle license expires. My buddy has had his for 35 years. Crazy. Just got the letter apparently. |

Even Russia has always had legal hunting, even during the Soviet era.
Confiscating shotguns? Never seen that, not even in UK albeit a license is required. This is why gun registration is a very bad thing. Sounds kind of fishy though... |

My rifle was lost in a tragic boating accident. If you lost your rifle in the dead sea, it might just float to the top. |

They have some very odd gun laws there. I don't get it myself.

What is it with parlamentary style governments and their disdain for guns?

Wife has alot of relatives in Isreal who are rabid gun owners. I am sure I would have heard something. Gun licenses are guaranteed to all citizens on demand. If a citizen asks for one, the government has to issue. No ability to deny. |

they also just banned fur. Not a surprise if they stopped giving out hunting licenses, too.

You get a letter close to your expiration telling you that you won't be renewed. Word is the permit-on-demand thing went away years ago. Oddly, pistols have not been mentioned. |

If you license something it can be taken away — an inalienable right, can not.

Why is this surprising? The Zionist movement was always left wing socialist. Their true colors had to come through eventually. Not a troll statement. The original settlements in Israel were kibbutzes. They were literally communes. The original Zionist movement (i.e. return to the homeland, not "evil Jew elders" BS) was deeply committed to communist ideals. |

Looks like liberal Jews from the US have invaded.
Next up, offers of land for peace. Oh wait. |

Wife just called and they said the exact opposite, the are making even easier to get guns after west bank attacks. The citizens are now getting a license without a police background check as long as you are a citizen. |

I don't think so....Been Israel many times during my years as a inflight Marshall,The Israel Government guarantees, almost insist they keep weapons. Most of the military age group MUST keep their weapons at home. It is also lawful to carry automatic weapons in certain areas. So this Is BS!

I had the wife make a call. See if you can find anything on the net to support the OP's claims. Something like the OP claims would be all over the news. |

OP please provide a link etc to verify your claim.
My very good friend states the EXACT OPPOSITE!! She has lived in Israel for nearly fifteen years, and I just spoke with her 10 minutes ago!! Otherwise I have to call. |

Considering the wife's uncle carries a full auto micro Uzi on his hip everywhere he goes (including work) I would say they are far more liberal than the US. The ignorance is strong in this thread. He is just an Engineer, and not some military / police type. |

Quoted: Quoted: Why is this surprising? The Zionist movement was always left wing socialist. Their true colors had to come through eventually. There's no troll in that post. You do understand that Zionism was / is the political movement focused on the return of Jews to Israel and the establishment of a Jewish state in Israel? You might want to do a little research into Zionism, its ideological roots and political philosophy, and the actual political organization of the State of Israel. Israel is a very "progressive" 'Social Democrat' socialist country and always has been. They have always had (since the end of the War of Independence) extremely tight gun control. Americans have a great number of misconceptions about Israel. Its not a place any American other than a far-left Democrat or socialist / Marxist would want to live. |

I spent the last hour trying to find anything about it and struck out, so the jury is still out as far as I'm concerned. As far as the troll comment, I have a hard time believing that Baldmonk's wife called her relatives at 0200 to ask such a question. I guess maybe they're night owls. Because it's 0200, I'm not on the phone with they guy who told me. |

Her family is very talkative over the net, since they are all over the world. All of his brothers (including wife's father) are here in the US except the one that moved back to Germany. |
