The army does hire many frum male singers to perform and the most secular soldiers love it. Therefore one has to ask why the one in charge of providing entertainment keeps bringing in entertainers that offend halachic standards. I think the real fear is that the older chilonim are worried that their sons are going to be influenced by the growing number of halacha observing soldiers in the IDF-it is said (and I don’t know if it is true) that more chilonim are seeking army exemptions than chareidim!

There definitely IS a “problem”, but the problem is the chiloni government elected by a largely chiloni population. BUT… before we in galus go on the attack, it would be appropriate to remember that if we could get even 100 thousand frum Yidden in chutz la’aretz to get up from their “comfortable” lives, (or maybe nowadays not everyone even IS so comfortable)and make aliya, it would make a HUGE impact on the matzav in Israel. Another 100,000 votes for frum parties could make Israel a different country than it now is. It would definitely give an added dimension to the Jewishness of those going, a dimension that, sadly, now they don’t even know is missing.

Am Haartz, the official rag of Jew haters in Israel, has from its unclean conception been in heated competition with the Arab propagandists at to who can invent the most creative blood libels against Jews. Their hatred for all things Jewish is legendary and should no more be taken seriously than the screeds of Nazi or Muslim newspapers. Furthermore, they are on the verge of bankruptcy due to a serious drop in their already low readership. The best way to relate to their psychotic babbling is to ignore them.
