>> I read Israel will have an Orthodox majority by 2030. Guess the sinful minority are starting to panic. <<

To be fair, there's a big difference between the regular, mainstream "Orthodox" Jews, and the "ULTRA" Orthodox Jews, which are a fringe movement.

My ideal choice for Prime Minister is a regular Orthodox Jew, Bezalel Smotrich, and he's far more conservative and much more religious than Bibi is.

On the other hand, the so-called "Ultra" Orthodox Jews are a bunch of loudmouth idiots who caused Bibi's government to collapse because they INSISTED on the unrealistic demand that their kids be exempt from military services for "religious" reasons. Of course there's nothing about "Thou Shall Not Serve In The Military" in the bible, so they made up some nonsense that their kids are too busy reading the Torah to do military training exercises and blah blah blah.

I don't want those dopes in the government pulling the strings either. I bet if you polled most "Orthodox" Jews, even they are tired of the "Ultra" Orthodox throwing temper tantrums.

They do not speak for Orthodox Jews anymore than David Duke speaks for white people.

I am planning on becoming an Ultra-Orthodox Jew (someone who follows the Torah completely). Chabad. Check them out: www.Chabad.org.
