Now Fired Gallant’s Approval Of 7K Chareidi Draft Orders Is An Attempt To Bring Down Netanyahu’s Government


Political correspondent Yaki Adamkar said on Channel 14 on Monday evening that Defense Minister Yoav Gallant’s approval of another 7,000 initial draft orders to beni yeshivos was a politically motivated move.

Adamkar elaborated that Gallant, who is well aware that the draft orders will be ignored by the vast majority of those who receive them, is taking revenge on Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu for seeking to remove him from his position as defense minister, a move that the prime minister actualized on Tuesday evening.

“Everything is personal,” Adamkar said. “This announcement from Gallant [about the draft orders] is a death rattle. This is a Defense Minister who understands that the sharp sword is hanging over his neck and that he is going to be fired, and he is looking to poke a finger in the eye of the Chareidi community and Netanyahu. This is revenge.”

“The decision is political not only from the opposition side,” Adamkar added. “There is a group within Likud, dating back to the period of judicial reform, whose aim, despite its members being part of the right-wing bloc, is to undermine the stability of the coalition.”

Channel 14 also quoted a senior government official on Monday as saying that the approval of the draft orders is Gallant’s attempt to overthrow the government.

“Gallant knows that without a new Chareidi draft law, there is no chance that issuing new draft orders will result in more Chareidi recruits,” he said. “This is an attempt to cause cracks in the coalition and overthrow the government.”

  1. It makes sense. Israel/Zionism is facing an “existential” threat (one that threatens the existence of the Medinah). That threat, according to most of the Israeli upper class, comes not from Iran or Hamas, but from the Hareidim. Gallant was courageously defending the country against that threat, so of course Bibi had to fire him. The reality is that there is a secular majority in the Kenesset, and most “nationalists” would rather ally with the far left if it is the only alternative to tolerating high levels of frumkeit in the Medinah.

  2. Haredim, who are basically ‘conscientious objectors’, are being used by the right and left:

    The far right wants them enlisted.

    The far left is hypocritical, as they actually do not want ANY Haredim anywhere. (They would vraryher get rid even of religious zionists serving).
    But still use this issue, acting as if they “care.”
    Chief hypocrite is Haaretz garbage (Haaretzism) who are constantly bashing and delegitimizimg the IDF with complere libels or half truth, suddenly on this issue they play “patriotic.” Disgusting.
