andrewrgross, 1 year ago I’m not an expert, but my understanding is that military service is mandatory for all, with a few exceptions. The ultra religious communities are exempt, which has become increasingly unpopular over time. Also, the head of Israel’s domestic police force, Itmar Ben Givir was rejected for mandatory service in his teens because of his extremism. Generally, though, leaders children serve.
