and in fact, not even the majority of Shomrei Torah uMitzvos in the world are Chareidi.
Actually a majority of Shomrei Torah uMitzvos in the world are Chareidi. In the U.S., 2/3 of Orthodox Jews are Chareidi (Pew Research, 2013). In Israel it is about the same number of Chareidim and Daati, with Chareidim increasing at a much higher rate. (Pew released a detailed demographic study on Israel a few months ago.) And the rest of the world’s Orthodox Jews combined don’t outweigh these demographics from the U.S. and Israel, which account for a large majority of Orthodox Jewry.
