“Yeshiva as a Maimonidean desert” that Chazon Ish created is not a correct analogy. Living in a desert presumes you take care of yourself, not erquesting others to send an army to protect your oasis.

Incorrect. Or better said – correct.
Correct – when talking about the analogy.
Satmar Rave asked Chazon Ish how come you do not run away to the caves, as mandated by Rambam , when surrounded by resha’im. Whereas Ch’I answered that Yeshivot are the caves of the Rambam . End of quote.
Said discussion Was not pertaining to IDF service at all.
IDF service – for haredim and for yeshiva boys are 2 totally different complex issues to be analyzed separately.
