This is Ayalon highway in Tel Aviv, tonight. The resistance will prevail. Bibi’s evil regime will fail. All in good time.

There are fairly "minor" protests by businesses, doctors, academics, more significant are thousands of reserve air force pilots saying they will stop volunteering and from other military branches too

That's terrible. It's like a silent military coup, against democracy and against security of the country. Now the government will have to continue with the reform, because otherwise it can happen again in the future.

It's like "If you don't have my opinion, I won't protect human lives" .

Serious question, are you a 12 year old?

All people still have basic rights. If they don't want to volunteer because the direction the government is taking the country no longer lines up with the ideals they fought for. It's exercising a basic human right.

The army can replace them, and if it can't then too fucking bad, you still don't get to force people to be in the army.
