I think This only gives these militants more of an incentive to kidnap Israeli soldiers and/or high ranking officials because they know Israel will try to recover these prisoners at just about any cost. It also gives the militants...

RIP knowledge

Rangers,
A lot of the stuff that is taught at RIP, such as advanced land nav , advanced first aid, sewing, etc., I have never done before. Do they teach you from scratch? Or should I be greatly worried about this?
