Panel: Exempt Ben-Artzi due to 'incompatibility'   
 
By Lili Galili, Haaretz Correspondent 
 
 
 
The Israel Defense Forces conscientious objection committee, also
known as the Conscience Committee, decided Tuesday not to recognize
jailed refusenik Yoni Ben-Artzi as a pacifist, but will recommend that
the IDF exempt him from military service due to his "incompatibility."
The head of the IDF Personnel Directorate will have a final say in the
matter. 
 
Ben-Artzi appeared before the committee for the fourth time earlier
this month, following three previous appearances during which the
panel did not recognize him as a pacifist. Ben-Artzi was granted an
additional hearing before the committee due to the recommendation of
the Jaffa military court, which handled his ten-month case. Contrary
to the opinion of previous panels, the military court recognized
Ben-Artzi as a pacifist. Following a recommendation made by the
Supreme Court, the IDF panel also included a civilian, a philosophy
professor, in addition to military personnel.
During his appearance earlier this month, Ben-Artzi repeated remarks
made at his previous three appearances before the panel, and during
his drawn-out court case, but also discussed the seven times that he
was jailed because of his conscription refusal, and described his life
during the ten months of his court case. 
At the end of his testimony, his attorney, Michael Sefarad, claimed
that after Ben-Artzi lost his trust in the military system, it would
be appropriate that the military panel, rather than the Supreme Court
or politicians, return his client's faith in the system, and exempt
him from military service.
Ben-Artzi, the nephew by marriage of Finance Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu, spent nearly two years battling to convince the army that
he is a pacifist. 
To date, Ben-Artzi has served more than 200 days in a military jail,
and was detained at a military base during the course of his ten-month
trial. Since it began handling Ben-Artzi's case, the make-up of the
Conscience Committee has changed, at the recommendation of the Supreme
Court. 
Sefarad requested that the military authorities change the composition
of the panel, on the assumption that it would be difficult for members
of the previous panels to retract their decisions. Sefarad claimed
that Ben-Artzi's prolonged imprisonment, under harsh conditions,
contradicts the claims by panel members who said that Ben-Artzi
refused conscription for reasons of convenience and because he could
not adapt to systems.
