Israeli Soldiers Adopt ‘Inglourious Basterds’ Facial Hair for War

Soldiers in the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) are joining a new trend as they wait to join the fight against Hamas: mustaches.

Many soldiers are posing for photos in their new facial hair; others are posting videos to social media that show an entire platoon wearing mustaches.

Some, especially religious men, already have beards, which are allowed in the IDF; women, obviously, go without. But the trend is notable — and it has allowed Israelis to find some humor in otherwise deeply serious circumstances.

The trend is based on the Brad Pitt character in the Quentin Tarantino film Inglourious Basterds, which is a 2009 movie about a fictional Jewish-American unit in the U.S. Army in World War II that takes revenge against Nazis and assassinates Adolf Hitler.

It helps that Tarantino lives in Israel and has been supportive of the IDF as it responds to the brutal Hamas terror attack of October 7.

There is another historical resonance: the mustache hearkens to the Yom Kippur War in 1973, when Egypt and Syria launched a surprise attack on Israel on the holiest day in the Jewish calendar.

That year, Yom Kippur fell on October 6, meaning that Hamas attacked almost exactly 50 years later. In that war, Israel suffered heavy losses for the first few days, but ultimately won.

The IDF soldiers clearly hope to repeat that pattern, turning the initial shock of 1,400 murders into a comprehensive win over Hamas.
