In this powerful episode of the Mael Time Podcast, host Daniel Mael sits down with a reservist IDF soldier, known only as "Y," to expose the truth behind military life in Israel. Together, they explore the harsh reality of equipment shortages, the frustration with organizations like Friends of the IDF (FIDF), and the troubling gap between donor expectations and what soldiers actually need.
This candid conversation dives deep into the need for transparency, accountability, and honest dialogue—not just between soldiers and support organizations, but between donors and the causes they champion. "Y" bravely shares firsthand experiences from the frontlines, shedding light on how marketing narratives often distort reality, and why soldiers frequently feel unable to speak up about what’s really going on.
