Yes, that's one key difference in Israel - very little cop brutality, unlike the fascist cops in Australia where I'm originally from.
In Israel the government is leading the world in stupid Corona lockdowns and vaccine coercion, but the Israeli people are leading the world in ignoring and passively resisting stupid rules.
Of course in a country where almost everyone has military training, cops that behaved like fascists would have a short career (or lifespan).
Nothing like police knowing that the people they are policing are just as good in combat as they are to keep everyone peaceful. There is also a greater sense of social cohesion so most police actually feel part of the people they are policing.
