        most ex-IOF, ex-CIA, etc. continue working in the military industrial complex and continue profiting from their reputations as war criminals to land prestigious jobs with obnoxious government contracts

      Disclaimer: I haven’t read the article yet — I’m just trying to get people to think. I get what you’re saying, but there’s another side to this: they are ex-IDF. Why did they leave? Not good enough pay, something else maybe. However, it’s a strong possibility that some of them left due to disappointments with the IDF, for ideological reasons. We shouldn’t shun people for where they worked, but rather check their integrity and competence. Who knows? They may be our greatest allies.
