As for the nature of the State, calling it extremely secular is libelous….
What a ridiculous thing to say. The State of Israel is irreligious. They are not ???? ???? ??????. The Leaders of the State do not follow Halachah. The founders of the State famously did everything in their power to ensure that Yiddishkeit would be forgotten. “Secular” – according to the first translation that came up on google – means “not subject to or bound by religious rule”. The State of Israel does not – by any stretch of imagination – follow Shulchan Aruch, or any other Code of Jewish Law. The State of Israel is irreligious at best; many would call it anti-religious.
You can support Zionism, you can believe in whatever you wish, you can convince yourself of any philosophy that pleases you – but please don’t let that blind you to the Chillul Hashem that considers itself representatives of the Jewish Nation.
