Attorney David Petar accused center-left politicians of hypocrisy, saying they claim arrests of Haredim are not the solution and prefer financial penalties, yet they protest when the coalition moves to release a minority group that became detainees by judicial order, according to an opinion post.
Attorney David Petar published an opinion post Sunday evening accusing center-left politicians of hypocrisy over the debate on Haredi conscription arrests. Petar argued that while these politicians say arrests are not the solution and favor financial sanctions, they protest when the coalition seeks to release a minority group that has been turned into detainees by judicial order. He claimed the left's goal is to split the right-wing camp and bring down the government.
As The Zioneer reported on June 29, Petar previously criticized left-wing protests as creating an 'anarchy of lawbreaking.' Other right-wing figures, including MK Nissim Vaturi, have made similar allegations against the left regarding Haredi conscription. The opinion reflects ongoing political tensions over the issue.
