To the #2 through #5 commentators

Your skepticism of the government’s and army’s keeping its commitments is justified. However, don’t lump Moshe Yaalon in the above-mentioned cholent. He’s an honest person. His track record in this respect is sterling. Only that who says will have the power to enforce this promise? And who says he will be in the next government?

And the government will let all the Yeminite children keep their “simonim” (peyot), and will provide free religious education and food to all those families who cannot otherwise afford to do so. Oh yes, and no parent will ever have to enter, decades later, where their children are.

Why do they have to register if they will not have to serve? Just grant the deferment!

Seems very reasonable. One can only hope the Moeztis Gedolei will rule correctly and there will be reasom and respect for the law of the Land
