Piggybacking this answer for visibility. I am a "lacto-ovo" vegetarian, a person who eats no meat, fish, chicken etc. but does eat eggs and dairy. I have been this type of vegetarian for over 20 years. My primary motivations for continuing this restrictive diet for so long are environmental and related to the rights of animals. (By the way, Im also a lawyer and what this guy did is a huge deal, good job Matt).
I tried to be a vegan for about 3 months and I just couldn't maintain it. I found I craved cheese and eggs in a way I never did for steak. Its clearly a half-measure, but it is also clearly better for animals and the environment than eating meat. Just wanted to throw that out there as another option.

I was advised not to file a complaint until after my dwi hearing
After your DWI hearing I would file a complaint if what you describe is true. That is for sure illegal and you can sue him for all sorts of things including false imprisonment, harrasment, and violation of your constitutional rights under USC s.1983. If you aren't getting good results talking to lawyers in your small town I would recommend going to your state ACLU for recommendations as well as looking up civil rights lawyers in major metropolitan areas of your state.
Edit: I actually thought of something else. Have you looked in to actually paying a defense attorney rather than relying on a public defender? The use of a paid defense attorney at your DWI hearing could be the difference between a successful or unsuccesful civil suit later on. You don't want to accidentaly admit to something unfavorable for your civil suit in order to reduce your punishment.
Nobody will stand up for your rights but you, and what he did is an egregious abuse of power.

This is false, service is not mandatory for dual citizens living outside Israel.
edit to the two posters below: I too am an Israeli living outside of Israel (U.S.). My comment is correct. Service is not mandatory for dual citizens living outside Israel.
If you go back to Israel and you are still relatively young, you have to serve, but if you live outside of Israel, as I said above, you do not.
