The Problem of the Haredim

Haredim do not join the army, do not become policemen, and do not have any kind of liberal education, not to mention advanced study of civics or politics. Yet as soon as they feel threatened, they form gangs and try to intimidate and attack random Arabs.

I think the Haredim have been sneaking a bit too much of Nozick on the sly.

I dont see the relationship between not serving in the army, etc. and attacking Arabs. Surely you dont think that Tzahal service creates a greater sensitivity toward the "other"?
