[Avodah] heter for IDF

[Eli Turkel]

Saul Newman asked: is any one aware of a psak from charedi poskim, that
befeirush gives a hetter to either have an IDF, or to serve in it?  for
males, of course>>

I am confused as I dont know of any reason to oppose it. R. Elyashiv shlita
and RSZA zt"l deal with many problems of the IDF.
The Tzitz Eliezer has a sefer on medinat yisrael. I dont have it with me but
I would imagine he deals with many military questions.
In the shiur of R. Zilberstein in Bnei Brak he occasionally deals with with
IDF questions again with no hint of any problems.
Of course ROY has many such questions in his seforim.

I would be shocked if anyone except some extreme groups expects a modern
Israel to live without an army. Questions about
specific issues do not remove the evident need for the IDF
