    I am an American who made aliyah like 4.5 years ago, so I’m not there now, but what I see on the news is honestly extremely shocking. Let’s put away Democrats vs Republicans for a second — you have masked people who don’t identify themselves harassing even US citizens for their papers. At least 2 people have been killed. Is the position of the frum community really that “who cares? it’s just a bunch of goyim?” or “DJT loves us, he wouldn’t let this happen to the Jews”. Until it does, even by mistake. Is that what it will take for the frum community to stop supporting this policy? Harm befalling a Jew? Or maybe if it isn’t “the right kind” of Jew, even then we won’t stand up? Wake up people; the country that has been a haven for us for decades is collapsing!

    Stop believing the fake news reported by the New York Times, CNN, NBC and all the other liars.

    ICE is doing an absolutely fabulous job.

    They are masked rightfully because left wing thugs are dozing them and invading their personal lives at their homes.

    May ICE continue doing the wonderful job they’ve been assigned in upholding the laws of the United States.

    And may all the left wing thugs and agitators interfering with ICE be locked up. The two dead thugs interfered with ice while armed, one with a moving automobile and the other with a loaded weapon, causing the law enforcement officers to fear for their lives. Good riddance to them.

    I guess if all your information comes from the mainstream media, this comment makes some sense. Although more likely this is a troll to get people riled up.

    Don’t obstruct their work or be an illegal alien, you’ll be OK.

    The problem is that your watching the news lol. This is about illegal immigrants not Jewish people.
    Illegals are here _illegally_
    And the fact that america is not a haven anymore that’s ok it was never meant to be. We are too comfortable here anyways.

    I must preface this by stating I have never supported ICE or most actions by the Felon in the White House.

    That said the frum community will not change its views until many frum white Jews with accents get swept up I. ICE raids, or they lose all their employees, nannies, cleaning ladies and landscapers.

    When ICE takes our brethren or it hits their pockets, they might change their minds. If they rake white Jews instead of only people of color, it might change their minds.
    There are many different legal aliens in the US who are Israelis who have overstayed tourist visas or are working while on educational or tourist visas. ICE will target them, too.
