Abbreviated service for national religious

I read your claim about shortened conscription for national religious men. Your main claims were that it is justified because they usually serve significant service (high percentages among me, for example), and also who determined that service in a yeshiva is less important than jobs in the IDF theater and the like.
And I was amazed to read the things, apparently love spoils the line
Hada , why don’t we expand your rule and give shortened service to everyone who serves in my army? Why keep it only for national religious people?
As long as you don’t do this, you are discriminating between two individuals who serve the same service.
The fact that one of the two decided to dedicate some of his time to studying Torah neither increases nor decreases, because it is his own business.
Two , indeed, a person who serves in a service like the IDF Theater and the like serves a less significant service. But from the moment the army decided that this is part of the services it needs (for the sake of boosting morale or please forgive me), we have no choice but to treat the service as a necessity.
If any group believes that service in the IDF theater is unnecessary, that group will respect that and work to change the situation so that there are no soldiers in the IDF theater, instead of using this service as an excuse for their evasion.

I don’t know what my things are you talking about and what you are referring to. As far as I understand from your words, what I said is that if people study Torah, they contribute to the people of Israel, and therefore, in my opinion, there is a place to give them discounts in service. Other combat soldiers do not study Torah, and therefore I did not understand your question as to why not give them similar discounts. The army (or the state) also decided that studying Torah is a significant service. Therefore, this is not an argument.
