Avi K -“Nanny, not good to frum Jews? What about alll of the money given to yeshivot and kollelim?”
And this point is why many Yeshivos/Kollelim don’t take from the Medina. So the Zionists can’t say -“you owe us”. But you notice they didn’t exempt these Yeshivos from the draft that they are now instituting on the Bochurim/Yungerleit.
The words of the Brisker Rov zt’l have been proven true.
The story was s/o came to him way at the begining of the Medina and asked if Yeshivos can take money from the Medina. He took out a golden chain & broke it in half. He said -“Just like I broke this chain, if you take money from them they will break the Yeshivos”.
They had the “Status Quo” since the begining of the State, not to draft guys in Yeshivos and see what they are doing now.
