yichusdik -Now I could argue that -that’s not what these Gedolim meant or other Gedolim said these Shittas were wrong, but that’s not the point. The point isn’t either whether to have a day remembering the killed soldiers -this in itself isn’t wrong.
The point is, what you “Frum” Zionim fail or don’t want to understand is this:
What does the Gov. do on this day? They speak about how strong they are -how strong their army is and how much stronger they & the army will be. People who learned all the Torah, not just pick bits & pieces to fit their fancy, understand this is clearly Koach V’oizem Yodi Ossoh Ess Hachayil Hazeh.
Being like this is Direct Kefira against Hashem and is one of the reasons Hashem brings destruction on the Jews. (Parsha Tochocha)
So to summarize, remembering the fallen in itself might be a good thing, but since this causes a Great Chilul Hashem, it’s better off not to have such a day.
Why can’t you understand this simple concept? Why do you have such Negious to the Freye Medina?
