“How come nobody here has anything to say about the endless
thousands of families in which the husband / father has been away
from his kollel / job/ wife / children for months on end and sacrificing
his health and sometimes his life, while there are tens of thousands
of young Charedi men available, many of whom
are not even learning, who could have given them a break?”

“Imagine if Yehoshua [ben Nun] went to fight Amalek and the
Charedim refused to go. Only Leviim were exempt.
The current war is Milchemes Mitzvah and Pikuach Nefesh.
They can ask for support positions and totally separate units
but to claim that the Chayalim are their servants
like garbage men is the height of Gaiva and Sinis Chinom.”

“Among the thousands upon thousands of people [who] are
celebrating the 80th anniversary of the freeing of the Rebbe of Satmar zt”l \
from the Holocaust, did anyone mention that it was THE ZIONISTS
who saved him by putting him on a train out of
Hungary — the very train that UJM spits upon?”

“These Yidden [Jews] who don’t support Medinat Yisrael
[the State of Israel] should not have the protection of Tzahal [the Israeli Army].”
“All you anti-Zionists here are disgusting self-hating Jews
who will get yours when Moshiach arrives.”

“You can be a Zionist and a Ben Torah.
In fact, I have no doubt in my mind that a [Religious] Zionist’s limud
is worth Aseret Monim [ten times] over your fake learning.
You have your own hateful religion that is completely disconnected from Judaism.
Enjoy the galut; you have no chelek in Eretz Israel and surely not be redeemed.”

“Many of the early Zionists were indeed rotten to the core
and did not care that Jews were being murdered
by the Germans, even welcomed it.
But, as Rabbi Yaakov Kaminetzky zt’l and others have said,
the fact that the State of Israel provided a homeland to Jews
after the awful Churban, when nobody wanted them,
should mitigate our kana’us toward the State.
You need to be completely blind not to see how
in many significant ways the secular state of Israel
has been beneficial for frum Jews over the years.
And in any event, many of today’s Israels are not
secular ideologues and atheists like the old Zionists.
Everyone wants to be cool and curse them out,
but at the same time use their services.
The root of this attitude is not Ahavas Yisrael
but Sin’as Yisrael.”
