None in this family is called Joe and I am not sure what or who you are talking about. The US exempted people from the Vietnam war for much, much less than being a pacifist or holding religious beliefs of any sort: for example one could be exempted for college, for work permits abroad e.g. in Canada (or one could do that in reverse, move to Canada AWOL and get a regular work permit, these people had no problem when later returning to USA), for being married with children. You don’t have a problem with, say, the Israeli taxpayer supporting xian clergy and even paying their huge overdue water bills, no problem with the Baha’i and their closed garden in Haifa, neither serve in the military, but the loathed charedim are dishonest parasites? To tell you the truth, I think the Israeli charedim are naive. They should leave the country, preferably renouncing citizenship, then all the problems of the Medinat will be removed. Or maybe not, but you will have to seek for new excuses.
