HaKatan: You list all the things you claim Israel did wrong. The fact that they haven’t had peace isn’t an issue. We’re still in galus, and there won’t be peace. More Jews died in WW2 than in Israel – would you say we shouldn’t have been in Europe either?
The fact is that Israel watches out for all Jews, all over the world. Just recently, when some Satmar drug smugglers were in prison in Japan, who stepped in to help them? Israel! Israel helped the people who hate them, the Satmar chassidim! Did any Satmar people say, “Hey, Israel might not be that bad!”? Of course not! But Israel didn’t care. They saw Jews who needed help, and they did whatever they could.
Who rescued the Satmar Rebbe from the Nazis? A Zionist! But of course, the chassidim decided to cover that up, and don’t tell their kids that.
You should learn a few things from Israel and the Zionists.
