Limited Facebook for Israeli soldiers

Pop quiz: if you were part of the Israeli military, would you they - A) be happy or B) be pissed - if you posted photos of yourself with weapons that are classified information?  If you guessed B, you are correct.  The new rules state that soldiers can have profiles, as long as they do not say that they are soldiers.  This includes all Defense Ministry employees as well.  With Facebook considered a “national threat,” they seem to be taking many precautions.

I’m sorry, but how dumb are these people?  I’m not just talking about the Israelis- looking through my friends on Facebook I can see pictures of the guys fighting for us with their weapons on display in pictures.  Think the American government limit or ban Facebook next?
