Reply To: Sharing the burden – Why Israel needs Chareidim to survive.

AAQ – Re. Future of IDF when Chareidim become a majority.

YYA: I don’t know why you are (pleasantly) surprised, we have discussed this before. By the time the IDF will really need Chareidim, it will be ripe for a complete makeover religiously and ideologically. I disagree on the importance of preparing/practicing for a Chareidi army. Aside from the practical reality that It won’t be today’s crop of 18 year olds, maybe their eventual children or grandchildren, but more importantly, our job is to keep the Torah. That is what will guarantee that there will be a future altogether. Whatever bridges will genuinely need to be crossed, will be crossed when we get there.
