Likud Member of Knesset Tali Gottlieb launched a sharp public attack against IDF Chief of Staff Aviv Zamir following a controversial letter he sent regarding the law freezing arrests of draft dodgers. Zamir requested removing the clause that allows the military to determine who qualifies as a yeshiva student exempt from enforcement actions. In a forceful post on X (formerly Twitter), Gottlieb directly addressed Zamir, urging him to "know your place" and calling for his immediate dismissal. She clarified she holds no official authority to fire him but insisted his letter was disgraceful and warranted removal from his position.
Gottlieb accused Zamir of undermining national resilience and mixing political motives with his military role. She condemned him for "descending into the political arena" and weakening the morale of soldiers and Israeli citizens alike, comparing his actions to those of opposition Knesset members. She concluded her statement by asserting she would have dismissed Zamir without hesitation and as soon as possible.

Gottlieb’s public denunciation signals a significant rift within the ruling Likud party and the IDF command structure. The controversy is expected to fuel ongoing debates about the military’s role in political matters and the future of conscription laws in Israel.
