For the wildly speculative, imagine that in 50 or so years, the charedi population share has risen to a super majority, and lo alenu, the Torah world and culture in EY were to be threatened or subjugated by a foreign force. Would the masses take up arms and other forms of direct resistance?
The premise is flawed, there were only brief periods where the majority of Israel was religious and the period that Chanukah occurred was not one of them.
