Rabbi Moshe Hager, who runs the Yattir pre-army academy and a Colonel in the IDF, spoke out against attempts to draft haredi men to the IDF by force. "There is a natural process of haredim drafting into IDF, men who have not been able to attend yeshivas and recruits, and this is a very positive process. Laws are usually ineffective and these laws only interfere," said Hager.
