truthsharer and musser zoger, instead of attempting to prove these great Rabbis to be wrong (certainly a foolish endeavor), you simply deride those who rightly condemn that which you cannot defend but inexplicably can’t help but defend.

Regarding “Rabbanim should leave politics to the politicians”, you are implying that decisions of learning versus, lihavdil, IDF are outside the purview of Rabbinic interest. I didn’t know there was “musser” outside of Orthodox Jewry, because your implication is certainly well outside the bounds of observant Judaism. It’s more like Zionists.

Regarding not everything is “black and white”, this is certainly true, but irrelevant here.

Even if Lapid actually mean what he claims, that he simply wants to help Chareidim, and not, as it appears, liHashcicham Torasecha uliHaaviram meChukei ritzonecha, this, too, is not relevant.

The end result of this whole proposal is the same: more shmad, in line with clear and primary Zionist ideology of replacing Judaism with CH”V Zionism. It is absurd to suggest otherwise unless you know for sure that this case is different, and there is no reason to believe this case is any different.

It’s too bad that Zionists, including “Religious Zionists” can’t face the facts about their own ignominious history of Zionism.

Please go read what the Torah sages of today have written of this whole issue. For example, Rav Dovid Soloveichik’s pieces on this are freely available online. Additionally, please read what Herzl and the other Zionists and, lihavdil, how gedolim such as the Brisker Rov who lived then and there understood Zionism, before you make uneducated and derogatory comments.
