To all viewing this discussion and others, I have noticed something fascinating. Twice in this discussion, UJM and Hakatan have both posted at the same time (hour and minute on November 15) and the same again on November 16. It is clear that they are either one person, using two accounts simultaneously or two people who synchronize activities on these boards to try convince others of their view. (If your points are indeed correct, you should not feel any need to use mind games or marketing tricks to present them.)
Their view (assuming it is their genuine view) has ignored Rav Shach and many other gedolim (although they claim to follow him), who always expressed gratitude to IDF soldiers, despite their disagreements with them. Rav Shach and the Divrei Yoel cried over the deaths of IDF soldiers, though they did not know them personally. Likewise, the gedolim always felt the pain of the yesomim and almonos and all of Klal Yisroel caused by the wars (case and point Rav Koledetsky shlita during the recent war). Assuming you aren’t paid by the Ayatollah or Neturei Kara, why have you guys never expressed any sympathy for anyone or any regret at any point over nearly a thousand soldiers killed over the past two years? Having read many of your posts on many boards, I am convinced that you are either paid to write what you do by parties outside of Yiddiskeit and/or spend little time learning Torah as all of your sources are stories and quotes which be found on internet rather than maamorei Chazal. One of the three signs of a Jew is to feel rachmonus, and this has been shown to be lacking.
