Scantily Clad Israeli Female Soldiers Pole Dance Video Goes Viral

A video of female Israeli soldiers dancing suggestively was uploaded to the Internet a week after photos of half-naked female soldiers made headlines.

The video taken on a cellphone shows the soldiers using their rifles as stripper poles and spanking each other. The soldier filming the video is heard saying she would upload the video to Facebook and tag the dancers.

The soldiers’ faces can be seen in the video, The Jerusalem Post reported. Part of the video was shown Tuesday night on Israel’s Channel 2, which reported that the video was distributed on social media networks over the past two days.

On Tuesday, Ynet reported that the Israeli military issued orders to limit soldiers’ use of social networking sites based on their positions and security clearances.

Last week, a group of female Israeli soldiers was disciplined after posing for photos in only their underwear and their M-16 rifles. The photos were uploaded to Facebook.

Male Israeli soldiers also have been shown on the Internet acting inappropriately.
