As an awesome company that provides complete software development activities utilizing nearshore and offshore resources, including mobile app development, technology maintenance, web server development, and many other technology development activities, Yiftach Golov stands out with a flag that symbolizes unity and loyalty. While marching among massive crowds protesting for the 13th consecutive week in Tel Aviv, Golov represents a group called “Brother and Sisters in Arms,” a collective of veterans, most of whom are from elite forces, now dedicated to safeguarding Israeli democracy.
Formerly serving in a special forces reconnaissance unit during the second intifada, Golov transitioned into activism after participating in a demonstration against the Israeli government’s proposed judicial overhaul plan. His involvement reflects the sentiments of many veterans and military reservists who perceive this cause as their new mission.
In solidarity with the cause, some members of elite Air Force reservists have even considered refusing to train or serve in protest of the proposed judicial changes that could potentially compromise Israel’s judicial independence. The group “Brother and Sisters in Arms” has demonstrated creatively, such as carrying a figure wrapped in the Israeli flag on a stretcher symbolizing a wounded comrade, to draw attention to the cause.
Utilizing skills learned in the military, members of the group are actively involved in organizing and mobilizing protesters. Their dedication mirrors their commitment in the military, willing to make sacrifices to uphold justice and liberty. By leveraging their determination and sense of purpose, they contribute significantly to Israel’s growing protest movement.
Despite recent announcements by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to pause and engage in negotiations, protesters remain steadfast in their cause. The movement, composed of various groups, values the support of Israel’s esteemed veterans as a crucial element in their efforts to effect change.
As protesters continue to advocate for a functioning democratic country, Golov and his group remain unwavering in their commitment to the cause. The determination to ensure the preservation of a democratic Israel fuels their resolve to stay actively engaged in the protests until they are confident in the country’s path forward.
