Proposed Law: Full Equality in Army Service

This is interesting. I can say just "interesting" because there is no way this goes through and gets to be more than just "interesting".

MK Alon Shuster (Hamachane Hamamlachti) said this evening in a radio interview that he is submitting a law proposal with another version of a draft law. 

I should note, I looked around on the internet a bit and could not find any details about this, so I only have this one statement to comment on. 

So Shuster said that his draft aw proposal will be equality for all, sharing the burden equally for all. There have been various proposals, and none of them are fully sharing the burden - they each target a specific community and demand the burden is shared equally in that one community, but they ignore others who are also not sharing the burden. Shuster says this proposal will be full equality and sharing the burden for everybody. Shuster says this will apply to Haredim and Arabs and even Haredi women who also need to serve the country in some way.

That is a bombshell. Haredi women? That battle was lost a long time ago, and Shuster wants to light the country up again over that issue???

Additionally, Benny Gantz, head of Shuster's party, has been working a long time on these draft law proposals and he has been relatively generous to the Haredim on this issue, making me wonder where this is coming from and if Shuster has approval and support for this or if he is going independent. 

Women? Obviously it would be some sort of offer of National Service and not actual army service but even that was absolutely rejected as "yaharog V'Al Yaavor" by the Haredi community.

I am curious to see what happens with this.

  1. This is called pure evil chutzpah! What nerve. This is so obviously a way for them to destroy the 'Jew', c'v. This is their last chance like a desparate wounded animal that is more dangerous than usual. They see they cannot change the Jewish heart and they want to
    do to the Jew where even our enemies from without could not do
    This shuster guy with his buddy benny gantz will fail - they are what is called the Erev Rav
    Amaleikim. The personification of evil.
