Purity of Arms-Tohar HaNeshek

 

  טוהר הנשק
"Purity of Arms" (Morality in Warfare)-The soldier shall make use of his weaponry and power only for the fulfillment of the mission and solely to the extent required; he will maintain his humanity even in combat.  The soldier shall not emply his weaponry and power to harm non-combatants or prisoners of war, and shall do all he can to avoid harming their lives, body, honor and property.

Some of the kids in the IDF.

Some of the reserves.

Anyhow, its a hard stance to maintain.  Doesn't always win them any praise.
