There are plenty of Israeli’s who have received exemptions, or have taken the punishment for not conscripting.

    Some. Not many. Regardless, I don't damn people for past mistakes if they recognize that they were mistakes and work to be a better person. She hasn't and isn't. That's why she is bad, not because she was in the IDF in the past.

    I don't expect some stupid kids to give up a good part of their life after living in a bubble of propaganda, but I expect them to grow as people and become better. Your past doesn't define who you are. We should always be willing to accept people with bad histories who are doing the work to make up for it.
