Quote of the Day

In the Jewish State it is not possible that there will not be an army division of Torah learners. Half the nation will learn Torah, and the other half will serve in the army. And then they will rotate, the yeshiva students of Ponevezh Yeshiva will go to the army and serve in combat and the public school kids will go to yeshiva. We are in agreement...people can't do both. Just like someone cannot serve in both the air force and the navy, so the avreichim can't do both either. A person can only do what he is doing to serve the State and the nation

  -- MK Moshe Gafni (UTJ), at a conference when asked about the IDF Draft Law the haredi parties are fighting for in coalition negotiations
