Reply To: Should Yeshiva's (all of them) say Mishberach for Israel soldiers on Shabbos?

I guess I read that differently.

And I don’t know the facts, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it was started for political reasons… but now it’s something emotional for many people which is not a bad reason for saying a tefilah. It shouldn’t be used as a sword to attack those who don’t say it by implying that they don’t appreciate what soldiers are risking and fighting for… but it’s a powerful and emotional tefilah for those who connect to it.
