Turn that finger inwards and see where you don't get it, where you don't show support and then understand that it is these cracks within the fabric of Orthodoxy allows the enemy a clear entry way. <br /><br />A UNITED FRONT where rabbis from YOSH AND YERUSHALAYIM start bridging gaps and seeking out the common denominators - without thought of politics or MINHAG, or loss of *honor* - but to do for the sake of doing TOGETHER is what will defeat Armilus and Amalek.Mezzuzahnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-31546911150311527592010-05-17T22:13:04.245+03:002010-05-17T22:13:04.245+03:00Mezzuah, you don't get it.

However, they didn't take to the streets because it was a "settler issue". They didn't block highways because it wasn't "their" struggle. They didn't say a word when it came to the clearly Jewish Gush Katif cemetery, which included fallen soldiers and graves less than a year old. But graves hundreds of years old that aren't even Jewish warrant a violent protest. And even if the graves are Jewish, halacha allows for their re-interment.<br />You may say that the settlers don't get involved with "hareidi issues", but that's not true. The national-religious crowd actively tries to reduce Shabbat desecration with outreach work, not with rocks. We should also remember that the hareidim (the rock throwing protesting ones, not the ones doing outreach work) aren't actually trying to prevent Shabbat desecration - they're just trying to keep it out of their neighborhoods. There are other examples too. In the Knesset and in local governments nat-rel politicians are no less active than the hareidim in trying to preserve the Jewish nature of the state.Hadassanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-85748744324474645512010-05-17T15:08:38.375+03:002010-05-17T15:08:38.375+03:00No, Mezzuzah.

I did so with my husband's blessings. (He studied in Ponevich, and you can't get blacker than that :) <br /><br />He said, "What will we say in heaven when they ask us what we did for Eretz Yisrael? You go demonstrate, and I will learn and give the merit of this learning so that the gerush will not take place."<br /><br />Yes, not enough charedim protested then. But not everyone kept quiet!Netivotgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00746343586043134996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-83231426151068881732010-05-17T09:57:18.839+03:002010-05-17T09:57:18.839+03:00It's enough that they are protesting now.

This should be acknowledged, not condemned.<br /><br />So, where were the representatives of Yehudah and Shomron yesterday and today in Ashkelon. I looked and looked and couldn't find one. Maybe we all choose our battles, eh?Mezzuzahnoreply@blogger.com
