"Maitav (Army Draft Office) Corona Recklessness"

Coronavirus Testing Scammer Alert:

This just in from NYC government:
"Notify NYC:
Scammers
are calling NYers to set up testing. This is NOT the City. Directly
contact your healthcare provider or call 311 for real info."

The
blatant disregard for human life exhibited by the Israeli government
and the Army Draft Office, in the midst of the escalating Corona
outbreak, was on full display at the Yom Chiyul in Tel HaShomer, by
virtue of absence of basic distancing precautions between recruits and
family members, who were witnessed congregating in large numbers, and in
close proximity, that Tuesday morning.
Moreover,
the very fact that the Army Draft Offices insists on remaining open and
summoning recruits in the midst of the outbreak constitutes a public
health hazard. How many lives have already been endangered by recruits
who picked up Corona at the Draft Offices and went home to spread it
around, including exposing vulnerable family members? Is that the price
to be paid for being summoned for military service?
After
a former IDF general (res.) publicly critiqued the Army Corona
protocols, it was noticed that the Tel HaShomer Draft Office closed this
week. However, the Jerusalem Draft Offices remained open for business,
summoning recruits as if they were merrily oblivious to the looming
collapse of the healthcare system, R"L, and to the broader societal
threat, about which Netanyahu so eloquently grandstands.
The
question here is really not so much on the Israeli military and draft
authorities, whose policies are most unconnected to Jewish Law, and are
not at all representative of the desires, concerns, and attitudes of the
Jewish community. Their anti-Torah disregard for the wellbeing and
rights of Israeli citizens is not new, and has, in modest measure, been
repeatedly covered in previous posts and published articles, primarily
regarding their female draft policies. [Just one recent example: For
the Army brass, drafting women clearly takes precedence over national
security, even to the extent of leaving southern border security
partially contingent of all-female tank* crews, as recently reported by
JNS.]
(* that's not a typographical error)
We
also don't have much to wonder about Netanyahu, whose inspirational
deliveries about national preparedness against Corona are exposed in
light of his own military's recklessness. He's sold his soul to the
Draft Agenda long ago. It's his faux "rightwing" government that
pioneered the escalating draft of even religious girls in recent years,
with all of the scandalous denial of human rights that goes along with
that, as we've covered for over a year now.
The
question we have here is more on the Ministry of Health, which is
apparently taking Corona very seriously: why do they allow this nonsense
to go on unabated?

Dear Spokesman,
Hello,
I frequently do contributing to The Jewish Press. I am curious as to
why recruitment into the IDF has been continuing despite the Corona
epidemic, especially given the primacy of the IDF in maintaining
national security in an increasingly unstable world. Do you perhaps have
any statement answering that question I could please quote? Thank you
in advance,

Revital,
Thank you kindly for your email. Whom specifically in the IDF would I contact to get that type of information?
More
to the point, my question really is what is the Health Ministry ITSELF
doing to ensure that those Israeli recruits - expected to lay down their
lives to defend fellow Jews from those who seek to exterminate us all -
are adequately protected from contracting and spreading Corona -- in
the midst of what PM Netanyahu described as a global pandemic, one over
which he's poised to shutdown the country?
Thank you again, in advance, for providing genuine information.

4. Their brief March 22nd reply was:
"Dear Binyomin Feinberg,
As mentioned in my previous e.mail – we are not allowed to answer questions concerning the IDF.
You should reach the IDF spokesman's office.
Best regards,
revital"
