Radical Party Threatens Zionist Regime Over Draft Law
AL-QUDS (Dispatches) – The Zionist regime’s ultra-Orthodox Shas party on Monday threatened to bring down prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s regime by backing a motion for early elections amid a row over military service.
Netanyahu’s coalition, one of the most right-wing in the occupying regime’s history, is at risk of collapsing over a bill that could reverse the long-standing exemption from the draft for ultra-Orthodox Jews.
The exemption is facing growing pushback as the Zionist regime wages war on Palestinians in Gaza.
Netanyahu is under pressure from within his Likud party to draft more ultra-Orthodox men and impose penalties on draft dodgers — a red line for Shas.
