Exclusive documentation reveals that Haredi deserters received a grant of 10,000 shekels following their imprisonment in military prison. The grant was distributed over the weekend as part of the 'Prison 1000' project, which enjoys the support of leading rabbis and Haredi mainstream leaders, including leaders of 'United Torah Judaism' Rabbi Landau and Rabbi Hirsch, the Gerer Rebbe, and the spiritual leader of Shas, Rabbi Yitzhak Yosef. The project, which has so far raised enormous sums, grants each deserter approximately 1,000 shekels for each actual day of imprisonment. The article notes that in recent days, an associate of Rabbi Hirsch presented a Basic Law that would grant a sweeping exemption from conscription for Haredim, and that Prime Minister Netanyahu is conveying messages to Haredim about support for appointments that would ease the passage of a favorable conscription law.
