Criticism Mounts Over Opposition's Position on Ultra-Orthodox IDF Conscription Critics of Israel's political left are accusing politicians and commentators of reversing their positions on Ultra-Orthodox military conscription following the elections. They argue that figures who previously campaigned against the so-called "draft-dodgers' government" are now advocating compromises on conscription to facilitate the formation of a new coalition. The criticism also targets the possibility of relying on Arab lawmakers to secure a parliamentary majority. Critics say the apparent shift could undermine public trust in future election campaigns and strengthen calls for another election. Join Israel online
