Arab Israelis Speak on Why They Choose to Serve in the IDF
(i24News) Yoseph Haddad - For many Arabs serving in the IDF, the decision to enlist is driven by shared concerns regarding the threats facing their home country - Israel.

He explained that in 2006 two rockets fell on an area where he lives, killing two children.
