  1. They wouldn’t mention that most of those who failed to enter are secular elite esp. from Tel Aviv and not chareidim but the govt wouldn’t force them to join.

  2. The government readily accepts the general populace’s petitions/applications for dichui and/or pitur from IDF service, because it creates openings allowing them to further push their agenda of forcefully conscripting Torah-Observant Yidden into the largest, organized assimilation machine known to man.
