Attorney-General Gali Baharav-Miara submitted a response to the Supreme Court on Thursday afternoon stating that the State is obligated by law to begin drafting Chareidim on April 1st and deny funding to yeshivos after a short adjustment period.
Her response, which was published on Wednesday evening, completely ignores the position of the government whom she was hired to represent.
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu submitted a separate response, requesting a 30-day extension to try to reach an agreement on the issue, stating that since October 7th, the government has spent most of its resources and time on the war but has also made “a huge effort to resolve this important issue.”
“The principle that guides us is to try to reach an agreement that will be based on an agreement that will guarantee its success, this after it has already been proven in the past that recruitment without an agreed upon arrangement actually achieved the opposite result. In recent weeks we have made an intense effort to consolidate the necessary arrangement and considerable progress has indeed been achieved, although the work is not yet complete.”
The prime minister requested an extension from the Supreme Court and notes that “another short period of time is needed to finalize the arrangement, to complete the work of the professional staff, to determine the routes and frameworks that will allow the recruits to maintain their lifestyle during their service, and to ensure that those whose ‘Torah is their art’ will be able to study Torah. We are at a crucial moment in the war, with great achievements and extraordinary challenges. We have the power to achieve both the goals of the war and resolve the recruitment issue.”

What kind of a corrupt political system does the state of Israel have that a single unelected person is given the power to be a one man opposition to the entire elected government from within???
And how the hell did they not fire this leftist witch immediately when they came into power, or in the 9 months since then?? This isn’t even the first time she is doing this!!!!
If the gedolim went now to ask from Iran and Palestine for a hill to make a yeshiva and study Torah safely they would be given this and even the right to carry guns, but if they are keep going to say like you don’t need us in the army and the zechus helps the war it is pouring salt and sugar on the wounds they say we also are the shechina and doing great things protecting Jewish people and it a headache they keep on playing here go to the army shechina kedosha and they say but it’s too hot and we waiting for a miracle no go to Iran and Palestine ask them for a hill and safety for yeshiva to learn Torah and they would give this with true heart
This will be the most epic April Fools when they are revealed to be the biggest fools around 😋
Ido:
It is a “State”, not a State.
They should all serve, there is no excuse not to!!
