To everybody claiming that there is no halachik reasoning behind this, I will tell you (like many before me have said) that R’ shmuel Arbach the gadol hador called for this. If u want to talk to him about his psak go right ahead.

When I first saw the news about these protesters and watched some clips I immediately thought of all those chareidim to be insane. But when I thought about I realized that it is a very one sided thought. Youre not thinking of the 2 bachurim that got arrested. Does it mean they have to spit at women (which I’m not sure is even true) obviously thats taking it to the extreme. But blocking the cars and buses has successfully made a huge uproar and bean a huge deal therefor the protests have bean a success IN THAT WAY. The point of the protest is to make a problem (kind of like a child throwing a temper tantrum for an hour until he gets the candy)
Its is a whole different story whether or not this is a chilul hashem. Plz dont qoute me and then say “of coarse its a chilul hashem etc” bec thats just a waste of time.
In my opinion, and that which should be of every frum jew in the world, being that israel should be run according to jewish law. One of the biggest reasons against thzioiny movement is the fact that it would create a secular israeli culture and cause thousands to not be frum. (thats exactly what happened, a great example being that of the spiritual exile of the Taimani the secular israeli gov. put upon them) Therefor an argument that it is creating a chilul hashem is a bad argument. If israel is accoording to halacha then chareidim wouldnt have protest or at least rarely. A jewish state not going like halacha is oxey moron-like statement. So this “chilul hashem” that is accused upon the chareidi protesters can be turned right back on israelis non halachik state.

If you are one of the many above who are completely against these protests you are a complete apikoyres as it is according to the opinion of the gadol hador.
