ultra-orthodox are something like 15% of israelis/20% of jewish israelis,
imagine you’re an average, genocidal israeli that does two years of military service bulldozing palestinian houses while hoping not to eat an al ghoul round. during your military term, you’re watching the israeli economy crumble and meanwhile you see a bunch of even more genocidal haredi israelis not only getting a pass for military duties but also getting a free ride to study the torah instead of getting real jobs. they’re a bunch of fascist welfare leeches.
That makes sense for people outside of the military or at a military desk job, sending people to the front lines who don’t want to be there seems more of a liability (unless its just going to be a whole companies of the ultra-orthodox being driven into Hamas ambushes by the non-ultra-orthodox.)
