  1. Whatever happened to the status quo rule? This rubs both ways

    1. The "status quo" rule was always understood by the Chareidim as "We can encroach on the State but the State can't encroach upon us." The Seculars noticed. Too bad.

  3. The best way to handle this is to announce that all Jews have to serve and if they don't they're subject to the same penalties. Access to state services, health care, housing assistance, etc.
    As for universities, universities don't make it a policy to encourage their students to avoid army service so it's not comparable.
