Web is full Bikini pictures so this sight should not be too uncommon and neither are pictures of guns; but put when you put them together and you’ve got everyone’s attention.
This girl is Israel’s latest international star, yet nobody knows her name - or even her face, for that matter. A shapely young brunette - presumably an IDF soldier - with a machine gun slung over her shoulder, standing in a provocative pose in a striped bikini as she enjoys the sun on a crowded beach standing next to an equally attractive friend wearing an equally tiny bathing suit.
I first spotted the photo on Facebook posted by a high-tech worker named Barak Raz- with the caption “Only in Israel.” It was shared more than 500 times and garnered 1,500 ‘likes.’ The photo wasn’t exclusively a Facebook phenomenon - it seems to have originated here and been viewed by more than 650,000 people over the course of a single day. The crowds were sent by the social news site Reddit. Among other places, it was picked up the popular techie blog Gizmodo which titled its post Badass Chicks In Israel Don’t Go To the Beach Without Their Assault Rifles.
Naturally, those passing the photo around are predominantly male and draw admiring comments that range from analysis of her various assets and the positioning of her - ahem - weaponry - rah-rah remarks like Raz’s, praising Israel and the IDF specifically for producing such a specimen.
Others ask practical questions like “where does she keep the cartridge?” and “what if she wants to go swimming?” There are also detailed discussions about the precise make of her weapon and why she would be carrying it. And, of course, there are suspicions of photoshopping that accompanies any hugely popular online photo. Any excuse to keep ogling.
In reaction to the photo going flag-wavingly viral in pro-Israel circles, some objections, like lefty journalist Ami Kaufman, who wrote sarcastically “Wow... we're so unique! makes me ooze with pride! After pinkwashing, let the hot-chick-washing begin!” But … he too, posted the photo.
Guys as we are on the topic of "Girls and Guns" from Israel so we looked into our library and picked some pictures of Hot IDF girls with their big guns, here they are:
