It's relatively normal in countries that still have conscription, if you don't serve and don't get an exception, you go to jail, otherwise what is the point of conscription vs just making it voluntary. The more damaging thing for these teens will be the social and career repercussions they face for refusing to serve, they will be barred from many lucrative jobs that will automatically filter out people who refused to serve, etc.

I'm sorry to tell you this but Israel will keep existing. There's no point in magical thinking. Its existence is guaranteed by our empire. They'll fall one day though, everybody does, even us.
