The IDF introduced on Sunday that Hashmonaim Brigade commander Col. Avinoam Emunah has been promoted to turn out to be IDF Chief of Employees Lt.-Gen. Eyal Zamir’s prime adviser on all haredi points.
In earlier reviews on the difficulty, the expectation was that Emunah would get the job and finally be promoted to the rank of brigadier normal, just like the rank of the IDF chief’s prime adviser on ladies’s points.
A part of the brand new place will contain among the similar obligations Emunah has had in founding the brigade, particularly tailor-made to haredim, however his portfolio will doubtless be widened to additionally deal with bigger strategic questions.
Zamir should resolve what to suggest for the way forward for integrating haredim and when to debate and contest authorities proposals, versus when to maintain a low profile and let the politics of the difficulty kind itself out.
Prior to now, Zamir had a lieutenant colonel-level adviser on haredi points, however Emunah’s excessive rank will give him extra pull in implementing main adjustments and new tasks, in addition to doubtless receiving bigger budgets.
Furthermore, if the amount of haredim serving within the IDF does in truth develop, a wide range of new points will doubtless inevitably come up from the sheer measurement and larger variety of dynamic issues that are likely to come up from a bigger inhabitants base.
