Israel & Self-Defence

In recent years, the Israeli self-defence system Krav Maga has gained increasing international recognition and esteem as a pinnacle of the field. It also has a reputation for striking the groin, perhaps way too much for the taste of some. Some feel that this is giving Israel an unwanted reputation.

Do you think the idea of Krav Maga's fixation with the groin is a fair assessment, or just another canard against the Jewish and Israeli people?

It's an embarrassment.
