The legal advisor to the Knesset’s Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee, Miri Frenkel Shor, is now demanding even harsher sanctions against Lomdei Torah—even after the Chareidi MKs raised the possibility of accepting her previous demands.
Chareidi MKs have long accused Frenkel Shor of doing everything she can to thwart the advancement of a viable Chareidi draft law, refusing to compromise on any issues and actively raising more and more demands.
She previously demanded that Chareidi MKs agree to higher recruitment quotas along with sanctions on Bnei Torah even after a law is passed—that will be lifted only after a year if recruitment targets are met. The Chareidi MKs initially refused this demand, but according to a Kikar H’Shabbat report, they recently raised the possibility of accepting the demands out of a lack of options. But Frenkel Shor is now demanding even more sanctions against Lomdei Torah.
“She asked to add another series of sanctions that would apply to Lomdei Torah even if the recruitment targets are met,” a senior Degel official said. “She’s also insisting on imposing sanctions against Lomdei Torah that are now designated as deserters even after a law has been passed.”
“We’re in the worst situation so far. There isn’t much time—we’ll have to make decisions, probably before the end of the week. The Gedolei Yisrael will make the decisions, not us.”

report accurately: the sanctions are NOT against lomdei Torah but draft dodgers. Lomdei Torah at hesder yeshivot who serve in the IDF are not targeted.
When will they stop persecuting a community of 1.5m/14% of the total population in that so called “democratic” state?!
DrGoy; And what about the 1000’s of draft dodgers in Tel Aviv, what sanctions do they get?
It is NOT for YOU to decide WHO are Lomdei Torah – OUR Gedolim make that decision!
Another rasha for the books. One of dr.goyys future gehenom chavrusas, stop rejoicing over your brother’s pain you disgusting animal
Dr. Yidd – The ‘draft dodgers’ were perfectly legal by due democratic process, until the judicial junta dictators decided to step in one fine day and declare them ‘illegal’. Contrary to what many Americans think, Mercaz Harav [among several other prominent RZ Yeshivos] is also NOT a ‘Hesder’ Yeshiva, but don’t worry, Smotrich will find some way to release them from any sanctions.
I don’t know who is more wicked the animals and Rogue Attorney General who manipulates the law in whatever Direction they want contrary to the government’s wishes, or the wicked disgusting Jews we have that celebrate what they do. Even Netanyahu doesn’t want what’s going on here, if you would ask him he would tell you that he’s very upset about it. But the animals here are worse than the Supreme Court
They are NOT draft “dodgers” – they are DRAFTED AND SERVE THE ARMY OF HASHEM UNDER THE ABLE, HONEST AND ETHICAL LEADERSHIP OF OUR GEDOLIM!
PS: The real draft DODGERS are those, who were assigned to protect the Gaza border while there were clear and obvious indications of an imminent attack, but out of arrogance or in protest to the Anti-dictatorship judicial reform stayed at home while 1200 kedoshim were murdered and 250 kidnapped.
about miri frenkel shor… Hashem will take care of her one day. we cant say she is a enamel because a animal if you are nice to them they can be your good friend. she doesn’t have a heart she is so hatful to charadim as long she is breathing and on the bored, she will make trouble. her day will come. should be sooner then later.
Hashem has his ways.
No Chareidi Jew should go to the army. We American Chareidim can step up to the plate and organize protest here. Maybe Purim we should have mass burnings of Israeli flags in all our communities from Boro park, Williamsburg,Monsey,monroe,Lakewood ,Jackson,Tom’s river,Staten Island and Florida.
