**Marta Urzędowska:Gazeta Wyborcza:“The utmost orthodoxes will go into the army”**
"The most crucial court in Israel has decided that ultra orthodox Jews must service in the army, although they have been exempt from this work since the beginning of the state. The decision may undermine the government of Benjamin Netanjah. "The government wanted to apply differences in enforcement between individuals on the basis of their group affiliation. However, in doing so, he seriously harmed the regulation of law and the rule that everyone is equal to the law" - is the ruling of the Israeli ultimate Court. The judges ordered the government not only to appoint highly orthodox Jews to the army, who had not yet had to serve, but besides to retreat financial support to spiritual schools whose students would not become servants. The ultimate Court's decision ends with the rule that ultraorthodox (Heredi) are excluded from the work to carry out military service. The Orthodox, on the another hand, do not hide discontent. "Here, in the judaic state, together with our precious soldiers who sacrifice their lives in the fight against the enemy, we will defend the Torah students, which allows us to defend our peculiar power and accomplish miracles in the field of combat" - says Aryeh Deri, leader of the orthodox Shas party. According to Army data, only last year 66,000 young orthodox people were released from the draft. The ultimate Court ruling is simply a challenge for the ruling coalition, due to the fact that there are 2 Orthodox parties in Benjamin Neatnjahu's office without whom he would lose the majority and the right to rule. Therefore, the Prime Minister has tried to push through the parliament in fresh weeks government that would perpetuate the exclusion of orthodoxs from military service. The situation is peculiarly hard for the government today, when, in the context of disputes over the way the war in Gaza and the future of the war enclave, the cabinet left opposition leader Benny Gantz. Although the commanders of the Israeli army complain that they have not adequate men to fight in Gaza and that they will request more at any moment, the ultimate Court ruling does not mean that from day to day the ranks of the soldiers have forced a crowd of orthodoxs. Moshe Roth, an MP from the Orthodox United organization of Torah and Judaism, does not hide that he will disregard the ruling. Nothing's gonna change anyway. It's just that the muscles are kind of flexing, and it's in the conversation with CNN. Even Israeli commanders admit that they will not be able to accept many orthodoxes at the same time, due to the fact that they have peculiar requirements: peculiar troops must be created for them, where, among others, they will not gotta service with women. Haredi is isolated from the remainder of society on a regular basis, so their leaders explain that they cannot be brought into the army: 3 years spent surrounded by secular colleagues can mean a permanent break-up with the orthodox community. This has not been a problem so far, as only a tiny number of orthodox volunteers served in the army. In the last year 18,000 enlisted. According to the army calculations, there may be around 4.8 1000 next year. The orthodox are not the only ones excluded from military service. The army is besides not served by Israeli Arabs, and an expanding proportion of unorthodox young Israelis get left medical leave or pretend to be orthodox.”
