1. time to leave....
steve ,   israel   (01.07.11)
soon it will be like Iran....
2. The status of
esther   (01.07.11)
haredi yeshiva boys are on a higher level than the secular tel aviv elite draft dodgers. Why don't you bibi recruit those secular draft dodges instead of starting up with orthodox rabbis who wouldn't allow the drafting in any event?
3. Steve and Esther: Go back to Haaretz.
Robert Haymond ,   Israel/Canada   (01.07.11)
Your silly comments are not appropriate for Ynet.

6. Charadi SHOULD have military service as well as yeshiva, it
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (01.07.11)
is all part of growing up and being an Israeli Jew.
7. No leftist government has done anything obviously viewing,
Yoram ,   Israel   (01.07.11)
with arrogance, the religious as useful idiots to vote their leftist creed into power and castration of Israel & Judaism replaced by political correctness and reverse racism from arabs allowed. This is a big step in the right direction. I would hope it mulpitplies exponentially; if 4800 in 2015, then 9600 in 2020, 19,200 in 2025, 38,400 in 2030, 76,800 in 2035, 153,600 in 2040... so in 10 years about 10k hareidim in service from the present 2400. in 20 yrs about 40k, in 30 years 150k+ very practical.
8. steve #1,6. This is a good thing, a huge step in the right
Yoram ,   Israel   (01.07.11)
direction! No left wing gorvenrment has done anything like this (that should be obvious with 2400 chareridim serrving despite 63 years of Israels rebirth). Must be practical. doubling the population every 5 years is practical. thats exponential growth. in 30 years with the same doubling of chareid service thats 150k+. Looks good. or are you against charedi serving???
