Just a minor note -both men and women are required to serve, although women generally serve in administrative positions.  I was suprised to learn that their laws prohibit people from having guns - but I suspect after this, that may change.  But it should be noted that it is a small country and generally speaking, the IDF is usually close by.  I think they were confident that that the fences would hold them back - there are concrete walls beneath the ground under the fences.  But it appears that they never thought they would have the audacity to cut through the fence.
