Over the years we've become accustomed to hearing the superlatives piled on the IDF. They are the most disciplined, most courageous, most moral fighting force of all time.
Turns out they're also one of the sleepiest.
Seems the soldiers from the 101st Paratroop Brigade were stationed at the border to ambush hashish smugglers and Hezbollah terrorists. When HQ was unable to make contact with the unit they sent a scouting mission out.
Fearing the worst, the scouts were relieved that there had been no mass abduction of Israeli troops. Instead, the entire unit was stretched out in the midday sun enjoying some peaceful nap time.
I'm thinking they probably intercepted one of those Bekaa valley drug mules the day before.
