I wonder if they will take a different view on war-mongering when it is their sons and daughters dying on the front line.

THOSE Ultra Orthodox are not the ones you are thinking about, they are real ultra religious people that actually goes to Yeshiva's and study the bible or whatever they study there.

  They’re settling on disputed lands and slowly pushing out Palestinians. Who is defending them at all times? Israeli soldiers who are not Ultra Ortodox. I think it’s good to give them a taste of conscription, all other Israelis do it, male, female, no exceptions. They are the exception.

    Not those Ultra Orthodoxes. They are mostly located in undisputed places like Bnei Brak, Jerusalem, Harish or Bet Shemesh. Religious settlers tend to serve in the army, although sometimes for a shorter period (in a Yeshivat Hesder). Having said that, the ruling is just and make sense.

      That is incorrect there are quite large Jewish orthodox cities inside Palestinian territories Like Elad and Beitar Elit. They are quite big. However they are relatively close to the Israeli border and not 'in your face' settlements.

I wonder if people will actually bother learning about the subject and history of a place before forming an opinion and posting online... Hasidim don't care about anything related to this. They don't want to be in the army because they want to study Torah and because they could get away with it. Israelis have a draft law. Many have died in Gaza, Lebanon etc. Everyone in Israel is related or knows someone related to someone who died recently in this conflict. Finally, that stupidity of "skin in the game" is astounding to me. The more people die the longer the war takes because "they couldn't have died for nothing". It becomes more brutal too because we can't risk our children fighting over there.
