Netanyahu: We're working on 10,000 Haredi soldiers "in two years"

Prime Minister Netanyahu said in a video released today (Tuesday) that "our best people" are working to bring about a draft law that is "good for the State of Israel."

Netanyahu said that the law would be based on respecting and not showing contempt for Torah students, a "value" of the Jewish People, while also bringing in "thousands" of soldiers into the ranks of the IDF, over 10,000 in the first two years alone, a number Netanyahu claims is historically unprecedented.

The clock is ticking on whether a compromise on the draft can be reached before tomorrow, when the Haredi parties are set to bring down the government and start the process for new elections in a few months.
