Again, having Chareidim serve in the army will not save lives. Thankfully, the IDF is doing that just fine without their help. All it will do is minimize the amount of Torah being learnt.

“To feed one’s family, you must have a paying occupation- not rely upon the others.”

Why? All you have to do is feed your family, and their families are being fed. Chiyuv fulfilled.

“As far as why israle hasn’t reliquished american aid- there are many israelis who say exactly that!”

Oh, please. Israel is not coming up with another three billion dollars a year. Cessation of US aid would be far more disastrous for Israel than the Chareidim taking government aid.
