If you can’t get out of the country or otherwise disappear, you can just spend your time in prison rather than serving. That’s an option open to any Israeli.
you can just spend your time in prison rather than serving.
Still only an option for the privileged - any Israeli who does that had better come from a rich enough family to keep them safe in that jail. I remember what they did to conscientous objectors here in Apartheid-South Africa - not pretty. And Israel is probably far, far worse in that regard.
You first-worlders do not understand what being born into a militarised fascist state is all about.
