Haredi youths protesting outside a military prison south of Haifa, in solidarity with two Yeshiva students who were imprisoned for refusing to report to the IDF recruitment offices last December. Now an anti-Zionist, leftist NGO has made it its mission to help these young men beat the draft.

Young Haredim would become better Jews by learning to act responsibly and by becoming familiar with a part of Israel they’ve only seen painted in hellish colors. The IDF could certainly benefit from an influx of modest young people, who don’t curse, aren’t violent, and adhere to a strong spiritual tradition.

I can understand why a leftist, anti-Israeli Vietnam era wannabes would try to stop that.
