In Israel - when a soldier takes his own life, there will be no reports that he have committed a suicide... i never knew why, now i understand - soldier are very important in the Israeli community and many children look upon them with awe, now it is perfectly clear to me that if their deed was published- it might actually make teenagers take their own life!
Thank you for expanding my knowledge!😊
That's really interesting. I'm personally unsure how I feel about it. On one hand, it's healthy to not publicize suicide, especially when serving in the military is mandatory. On the other, it's difficult not to acknowledge there decision and possible systemic/societal problem.
Thank you for the though-provoking comment @kivsha!
I do see your point of view - and the way the reason of death is defined in this case "the a tragic situation" is known to knowledgeable persons, so it keeps the reason covered while actually pointing it to those with the right knowledge of this term.
