Fully agree with ending the draft, but I think that separating religion and state will only result in more chillul shabbos, greater acceptance of homosexuality, etc. It would also rob the Jewish Identity of the State of Israel of whatever connection it maintains to the actual Halachic observance of Judaism. What we have now is far from perfect, but it’s also far better than nothing.
Also, I do think that pursuing peace with the Palestinians is important; fighting a war every two or three years is not a very good long-term plan. That said, we obviously should not be making concessions that will undermine our security (freeing terrorists, giving up East Jerusalem, etc) as long as there is a realistic threat of terrorism.
