For 16 years now, David Hager has managed to avoid giving an interview. The businessman and philanthropist, who is considered to be one of the most significant forces urging the recruitment of ultra-Orthodox Jews or Haredim into the IDF, does his utmost to limit exposure to a minimum. "I prefer to work underneath the radar, quietly, for, as it says in the Talmud, 'A blessing is found only in an object that is hidden from the eye', but on occasions, there is no choice," he explains in a conversation from his home on the 22nd floor of the Leonardo Plaza Hotel in Jerusalem.
