Le deal avec les Haredim continue - et le service régulier ne sera pas raccourci

Évaluation

The decision to keep mandatory service at 32 months rather than extending it to 36 reflects a compromise driven by political coalition pressures, not purely operational needs. The military acknowledges a shortage of combat soldiers, yet the stated rationale for maintaining current service length is framed as an urgent operational response. This suggests the political deal with ultra-Orthodox parties is shaping defense policy in ways that may not fully address manpower gaps. Watch whether the military's actual readiness is affected by this trade-off between political stability and force requirements.
