Ping for your interest.
Sound like useful idiots to me. Obama voters. Am I missing something?
That's the whole point of Basic Training.
I never understood the deal where the Jewish men sit on their asses studying Torah while the women get to make the money and figure out how to feed the children.
These young boys going into the Army could be the making of them. I think the Netanyahu brothers are very appealing.
If they plan on living in NYC, why should they care what goes on in Israel?
If they wish to make Aliyah, then they should be willing to defend Eretz Israel from the rapacious wolves that surround her.
If these folks had been actual Israelites in the time of Joshua, I believe that G-d would have had very little patience with them.
Here? They do in Israel.
I watched a recent documentary about how those thousands live off the dole in Israel and do not contribute anything to the country that they reside in.
It’s easy to sit in NYC and demand that Israel turn it’s tiny population into sheep.
Orthodox Jews go right past psalm 144: Blessed be the Lord my rock, who teacheth my hands to war, and My fingers to fight.

If these are the types where me or my beloved family are not worth one of their fingernails, well then the hell with them let the IDF use them for practice.
Not only are a lot on welfare, but they protest Israeli’s
use of the draft, in a far away country, instead of in
Israeli. Brave. and they were behind a police barricade.

If the Ultra-Orhtodox beliefs are so extremely against supporting the existence of the state of Israel, then the rest of the Jewish population in Israel should be quit of them in every Israeli state service to them.
How wonderful for them as Orthodox Jews that they can actually live in modern Israel, an Israel they will not defend.
I thought we went to war with England when they tried to impress American Citizens into their navy.
Complete f-cking putzes. Every one of them.
I am an Orthodox Jew, as was my father, and his father.
There is no conflict between being an observant Jewish person and serving in the military.
I served 16 years in the IDF, and shot down 2 MIGS and had countless ground attacks.
My father before me served in the IDF and the US Marines, Vietnam, 2 tours. He earned a Silver Star.
His father before him served in the IDF, the US Army Air Corp, and the Kaiser’s Air Force in WWI, where he shot down a Frenchman and an American and earned the Iron Cross (and was nominated for the Blue Max by his CO, but didn’t get it).
I am not sure about his father before him, but apparently he was in the Prussian Military, position and service unknown.
All these putzes can go piss on themselves.
In Israel, you are correct. Not the USA.
Its more than just that....ask anyone lives around Monroe NY
yet Freepers think orthodox means great by default
In Israel...many many Hasidim live on the arm....
Its tension no question.....for other Jews
But the Orthodox prime the guilt of the secular for being non religious....they get paid with tax dollars for being observant
Its an odd bunch....I’ve known a few I liked but they are very very different
Average goy Freeper would have more in common with secular Jew....particularly Israeli
But what defines that unicorn....a Jewish conservative is family and roots more than anything....which is why its rare
And...being observant for a Jew is very different than for Christian
Its more about practices....
