Zichmich, you are the one who is haughty and arogant. An army cannot have a different pesak for each Jewish soldier. Their is an Army Rabbinate and they have the status of mara d’atra. Unless someone is (really) learning, disabled, etc.he has an absolute Tora obligation to serve. This is halacha pesuka.And FYI, in the War of Independence Chassidim served in droves and there is a famous photo a Chassidim aiming weapons. Later because of pressure they took deferments (the Vizhnitzer rebbe said so in so many words).
