    Spend 30 days in jail vs Murder the locals.

    Shocked that this is so rare it makes the news.

      If you’ve ever seen a video of those monsters celebrating the destruction of Palestinian’s homes it would become clear why it’s so rare. Literally jumping for joy and clapping after kicking someone out of their home and watching as it crumbles in front of them. Inhuman.

        This is something that happens all the time, why are you calling it “so rare”?

        So you’re claiming “those monsters” includes non-members of the military who are up for conscription? I.e. every Israeli?

          1), that’s bad faith and 2) If you go to jail because you refused to serve, no I would not consider you a monster, quite the opposite.

      It isn’t rare at all, the news is just primed to latch onto this stuff now.

        I hope you’re right. It’s entirely possible you are and this is being politicized and publicized precisely because of ongoing events. But I sincerely hope the number does go up because of current events.

    This shouldn’t even be news, it literally happens constantly in Israel. I personally know someone who did time for refusing mandatory service. It’s considered a rite of passage by those of certain political persuasions.

      Forced military service in an ethnostate engaged in genocide is a pretty righteous thing to oppose.

      Conscription is yet another good reason to stop finding or enabling Israel’s psychotic march to the sea.

    Prison or worse for refusing to give your life for your Leader is completely normal in any fascist regime.

        Most EU contries don`t have a forced Military Service. Even if they have, as.eg Germany in the past, you can select an alternative social service for an equivalent time, if you don’t want become a soldier.

        I’m not sure what you mean by “who?”. Are you asking me who the person that was arrested is, or who Hasan is?

                Justified in what? If you’re talking about the Ukrainian invasion that’s been going on for two years, no he does not.

    Good for him for standing up for his ideals. Also, this is not news because this is what happens when you don’t follow conscription orders.
