Q&A: Drafting Haredim
Drafting Haredim
Question
Hello,
I saw this video: https://youtu.be/ekqTOvZszd0?si=aIu399ivMIwphxrE
And from what was said, I understand that the Rabbi claims that even though he knows there is no chance of influencing the draft issue immediately, he is joining this struggle because it is important to him to fight the Hardal approach that subordinates itself to the Haredi rabbis.
So I ask: is it right to fight the Haredim for the sake of an internal sectoral dispute?
And is it right to bring down a government during a war for the sake of an internal sectoral dispute?
P.S.
In order to solve the draft problem, you need to solve the economic dependence of the Haredi public on the kollels, and that has been happening in recent years and will yield results once they loosen up the issue a bit.
So it seems to me that this approach of attacking the Haredim will leave us with two birds still in the tree.
It would be better to focus directly on the internal dispute and not get scattered into other issues.
Answer
Oren, this isn't coming from you. This morning I received this message through my wife. Not for nothing did I choose not to answer. There's no point in attributing hidden motives to me. I meant exactly what I said. These twisted interpretations of my intentions are the responsibility of the interpreter.

Haha, it's so naive to think that a megaphone on a bridge in front of 50 people and 170 YouTube views is what's going to make the difference.
Hahaha, since when is this video from yesterday? Too bad—I live not far from there, and I would have given you some pushback to create balance.
