For people who consider themselves intellectuals some comments here are pretty vapid. The Chareidim have a reasonable Shita that the Zionist government does not have a legitimate right to function. This Shita was formulated by Gedolim and is partly based upon the fact that the founders of the medinah were complicit in the Holocaust, and also coerced thousands of sefardic children to abandon judaism. Some posters on this site attempt to malign anyone involved with the Eidah as hot-headed zealots. Lets remember that Dayan Weiss, the current head of the Eidah was very highly regarded in England only a few short years ago. Inane, dithering comments about how the Zionist founded a beautiful society, made the dessert bloom etc. are completely besides the point and fail to convey anything meaningful.
