With all due respect to the gedolim that are against the draft, are there no gedolim that are in support of it?
And is it also possible that they will not be sending the bnei yeshiva to the front lines, but only asking them to do the training, and help out as support staff?
My guess is yes to both questions. But like most takers, the very thought of being asked to help out sends them screaming “shmadd!” so the status quo rolls on.
And we wonder why the chilonim think of us the way they do.
