Sam2 -“Health: The Mitzvah of Yishuv Ha’aretz exists no matter what type of government there is. It existed under Roman, Christian, Muslim and British rule, even if we couldn’t do it then. And it applies now. The Medinah is Lo Ma’aleh V’lo Morid on whether there’s a Mitzvah to live in Eretz Yisrael.”
Either you’re nitpicking or you really misunderstood me. I thought it was obvious when I wrote “Yishuv Ha’aretz” in response to him – that I was talking about the whole nine yards, not just “Yishuv Ha’aretz” as a stand alone!
