Social networks are abuzz this evening (Saturday) following the words of Israel's chief rabbi, Yitzhak Yosef, about recruiting ultra-Orthodox to the IDF. The netizens were not indifferent to the rabbi's words during the weekly Torah lesson he gave in Jerusalem, including the threat: "If they force us to go to the army, we will all go abroad "To".
A few minutes after the words were published, many and varied reactions were published on the networks - some of them angry at the unusual statement: "He should be fired. As early as tonight. He is a public servant, and he is a brat," wrote journalist Haim Bar Ze'ev.
And some of them are joking: "Don't forget, when you leave abroad, only in business class," wrote Yair Brill on his X account.
Reuven Lediansi, a member of the Tel Aviv City Council, asked the rabbi in his X account: "Your Honor, who exactly will receive you abroad?
And where will you find suckers abroad like the secularists in Israel who are going to fight for you, hold the economy for you and finance your yeshiva? Come on, come try us. The tickets are on us."

The journalist Ben Caspit also commented on the things in his X account: "Spoiler: they will not travel. And they will not enlist."
Another user named Amnon Harari criticized the rabbi's words regarding the financing of the plane tickets: "From whose money? Eh?", he wrote.
"Wait-wait-wait, so only one law and we have solved some of the problems? So what are we waiting for?", Val wrote.
Journalist Amit Segal responded to the rabbi's statement that "the Levi tribe is exempt from the army - they don't take him under any circumstances," and pointed out in his X account: "However, it is worth noting that the Levi tribe never threatened to leave the country."
"Your idleness is your art - Chief Rabbi Yosef, whose tax money appoints him and his unnecessary position, thinks he is scaring someone. Rather - fly abroad, and there you will argue knowing that yeshiva students in other countries work and finance themselves.
I am ready to arrange for them transportation and referral to the labor offices in Amsterdam, Brussels, Antwerp and New York," added journalist Yair Navot.
