----------------------
Two officers lost their personal weapons one day.
After searching and not finding them, they decide to judge each other.
They arrange a room with a flag to serve as a courtroom, and start the trial.
.
The first officer who serves as a judge asks the other, "Do you plead guilty?"
"I do," replies the "defendant."
"If so," says the judge, "I will give you a severe rebuke on your personal file."
They change roles and the officer who is tried becomes a judge.
The second officer "judge" asks, "Do you plead guilty?"
"I do" replies the other officer.
"If so," the judge says, "I am sentencing you to three years' imprisonment."
"How can that be?" asks the defendant. "After all, you got only a rebuke."
The judge answers, "Yes, but this is the second time it has happened in your unit ..."

While it is funny, the joke's very existence proves the morality of the IDF, where it is expected that losing a weapon would bring one to court, and where multiple offenses per unit are considered serious.
