HELP!!
Where ever I turn, people are talking about it, discussing it, dissecting it, analyzing it, examining, probing, researching etc.
How many seats, votes, parties…
For goodness sake, I use only one seat at a time, need no votes, and will go to as many parties that have my choice of delicacies.
Have no idea how things work over there, to me it would seem even a bit shallow that the “whole of Klal Yisroel” is mixed into these things. No? You do what you gotta, then return to avodas HaShem.
(is it a tiava like posting in the CR?!?)
someone here please explain it to me, thanks

Shallow? Absolutely not. Events that involve/concern litterally millions of Yidden can not be called shallow

Even if you hold that there is no halachic basis for zionism (as most hareidim do), Eretz Yisrael is now the largest concentration of Jews in the world.

Ours not shallow for them to talk about it, but it’s probably pointless, being as they are not gedolim whose opinions count. However, say it as you may,a tremendous amount rides on the election that has huge implications for klal yisrael.
