end the war so that...

Yaakov Rivlin of the Bakehilla newspaper (a Haredi weekly that is only in print, not online, though they have a not very active Twitter/X account) reports in this week's edition that an unnamed MK from UTJ has said:

"There is no chance for the Draft law to pass that the Tzionut Hadatit [party] could live with as long as the war is ongoing with nearly daily reports of "hutar lpirsum" [soldiers deaths].. r"l. We have to pray for a diplomatic arrangement that will finish this war."

Sad. Disconnected. Even enraging. This disconnect is what so many people including in the National Religious are so upset about right now, and they just dont get it. 

We dont have to daven to finish the war so that no more young men, and middle aged men, will die. We dont have to daven to finish the war to bring some stability back to the people of Israel, to the citizens, to the economy. We dont have to daven for the end of the war for the hostages to come home.  We have to daven for the end of the war so that the National Religious people will finally agree to a Draft Law so that we, or almost none of us, will have to go to the army.
