Reply To: What is the true "state" of Israel

The zionists (defined as the majority in the 1947-1949 period, as demonstrated by the vote in the first elections) wanted a place where Jews could live in peace and be as totally goyish as they wanted. For the most part they have been successful. While most of the zionists are disappointed that there are so many shuls and yeshivos (what they were trying to be free of), they find nothing objectionable to “avodah zara” – heck that’s a feature to them, not a bug. How the zionists will react to the “demographic crisis” (frum Jews becoming a majority) is unknown – but remember they control the economy, the military and the criminal justice system
