Netanyahu can't campaign against draft-evasion law he just backed - editorial
The haredi public is a vital part of Israel, but that does not justify mass exemption during a sustained national-security emergency
Assessment
The editorial highlights a political contradiction: Netanyahu's support for the draft-exemption law undermines any campaign rhetoric against it. The core tension is between the haredi community's societal role and the practical demands of a prolonged security crisis. Readers should watch whether this inconsistency becomes a focal point in coalition negotiations or public debate, as it touches on both military readiness and political survival.
