So, the army has started to make arrests f yeshiva bochurim who refuse to register with the army..
1. One thing commonly said in recent months was that there is no way they would arrest so many haredim. looks like the plan backfired. It does not even take "so many". The IDF has arrested 3 and everyone is up in arms.
2. Didn't those promoting refusal of service say that they would be happy to sit in jail rather than register with the army? I even remember them saying that they would be able to sit and learn completely on the government dime while in jail, as they would then be completely funded, rather than the only minor funding received outside of jail.
So what's with all the protests? It seems the IDF called their bluff and now we see they are not actually so happy about sitting in jail...
