Joe or really Daniella? Yes,distorted fantasies. Conscientous objectors is a very strictly defined category. It is people who religiously believe that any war under any circumstanses is totally prohibited. The US did not poter people who objected to the Vietnam war from the military duty as conscientous objectors. The Israeli Chareidim’s ta’anah is that it is bittul Torah to go the Army (they said those who do not learn should go) while the only reason they can learn is because the frei pay part of their bills.
