These useless and foolish burnings have been going on for at least 69 years and guess what, they have not harmed the IDF one iota. I can only imagine who will be rooting for a conviction on such a massive national security breach. After all, anytime it’s Chareidim vs. the state, we instinctively, automatically know who’s the guilty party. Why not just hand the guy a 10 year prison sentence without bothering with a judge and a trial? Ultimately, “the Chareidim are our misfortune….!” (at least most of them)
