Isayeret.com ("The Israeli Special Forces Database") is a website dedicated to the Israeli Special Forces of the Israel Defense Forces elite units (Sayeret) and the Counter Terrorism units of the Israel Police, Israel Border Police and Israel Prison Service.
The website contains detailed overviews of Israeli Special Forces units as well as numerous related subjects such as weapons, tactical gear, vehicles and schools. Additionally, the site includes extensive photo galleries of the various units during training and combat deployment, video clips galleries and an extensive collection of all Israeli Special Forces units' insignias.
Isayeret was created in 1997 by former IDF operators and was written in English in order to allow access to foreign visitors (Jewish people, pro-Israel supporters and others) who were interested in the Israeli Special Forces. The site's activity is financed by subscribers from foreign (non-Israeli) visitors while Israeli visitors enjoy free access (so that Israeli teenagers prior to their mandatory IDF service can learn about the various recruitment opportunities exisiting within the Israeli Special Forces community).
