IDF argue Haredim with Dati Leumi
The IDF is reportedly working overtime to find ways to get religious women to join the IDF and have made their interview process more thorough to determine a candidate's level of religious observance when applying for the exemption for religious women.
Reportedly, the recruiting officer even said to one such candidate who explained that she does not want to serve due to a prohibition on women serving int he army and a psak to that point issued by many rabbonim, something to the tune of many haredim are being drafted today and if the army was so bad, they would not do so - "and they are far more haredi than you".
source: Kipa
The candidate's response should have been something to the tune of explaining that the Haredim don't allow even a single woman to join the army, so if they want to point to the Haredim as examples, their number swill go way down among female recruits. And, if they want to compare the DL community to the Haredi community in general regarding the draft, the DL can take a similar approach to the Haredim as well, and the army won't be so happy about Haredim drafting if the DL community imitates the percentages of Haredim being drafted...

donors for donors
Rav Haber from the amazing Matnat Chaim organization is being investigated for giving donor priority to donors. Matnat Chaim encourages and arranges live organ donations, specifically of kidneys. Due to the efforts of Matnat Chaim, the numbers of kidney donations, altruistic, have skyrocketed. The investigation seems o looking into whether Rav Haber gave priority to kidney donor recipients who made donations to his organization, which is illegal.
Without weighing in on any opinion if Rav Haber is good or bad and if he did something wrong or not, because I do not have any secret information that reveals this to me...
The Haredi sites are going out of their way to talk about how great Rav Haber is and they are showing tremendous support from past donor recipients who are acting as character witnesses and saying no money was involved.
Perhaps no money was ever involved. I certainly hope that is the case. I just never understood the futility of such efforts. Nobody ever said every potential recipient had to pay to receive a donation. The claim is that some recipients got pushed up the list by making donations. Those that did not pay to play, surely the vast majority, will not even know about that - so them saying publicly nothing untoward ever happened is pointless. If something happened, they just do not know about it, as would be expected.
The sad thing is that if he is found guilty it is likely Matnat Chaim will bear the brunt of the negative publicity and kidney donations will probably plummet back to near the levels they were when only the government was involved in looking for donations.
