Sassover Rebbe Speaks in Lakewood on the Chareidi Draft (Giyus) - האדמו"ר מסאסוב דורש לענין הגיוס

The Sassover Rebbe of Ganei Tikva spoke in Lakewood in December of 2018. He quotes Israeli officials and reads from proposed draft legislation to describe the ultimate goal of the draft - to fully integrate Chareidim into the IDF ח"ו. He emphasized the great risk for bochurim who are not well connected or have been deemed to have 'fallen by the wayside'. Even for those who receive a petur the aribitrary, surprise inspections keep everyone in danger of being drafted. While details of the draft legislation may have changed, the drosho stills serves as a wake-up call about the severity of the issue.
