oomis: first of all, do you really feel that at the present the Chareidi community does not “give SOME form of service to the country”? Besides paying full taxes, have you ever heard of Hatzala, Zaka, Yad Eliezer etc. We actually have a much higher voluteer rate than the general population. The difference is that we chose who will serve and in which way, rather than having it dictated to us by outsiders.
“There has to be a compromise of SOME type here”
We are very open to compromise. The problem is that the other side refuses any form of compromise. They have declared war against the Torah community (including the National Religious); war brokers no compromises. Don’t support them in their war against us!!!
