I’m not sure how it is that the same people who think funding a couple of thousand kollel yungerleit will bring destruction upon Israel’s economy are so willing to forgo the three billion dollars a year that the Israel receives from America. I guarantee you, cessation of US foreign aid will be far worse for Israel than the Chareidim not working.

“I already mentioned this idea. Now to get the Frum US communities to back this guy.”

I don’t want this to happen; I just think it might.

“Kanoi, get over it. It is not an inborn, unalienable right of every Israeli Chareidi to learn forever on the money squeezed out of unwilling and resentful public and never be bothered with any requests!”

No, it isn’t. But it is a tremendous zechus for the State of Israel that it is funding so much Torah learning. (Aron nosei es nosav.) If that zechus disappears, who knows what situation Israel might find itself in?
