My tablet won't copy this page, which I've seen happen once before, but I wanted to post this. I read once that Israel would reach 50% Orthodox Jews in population by 2040. Looks likely.

If you want to add keyword learntopost, first tell me why my tablet wouldn't copy this page.

My wife works with a bunch of ultra orthodox Israelis and they really believe that they need to repopulated the Jewish population. Most of them have 5 or more kids.

As an American patriot, a Jew, and a Zionist, let me be the first to say there are huge elements of the orthodox population, particularly those two-country welfare-suckers (also unwilling to serve in the military,) I utterly despise. Deeply, deeply distasteful people Israel and perhaps the U.S. would be better off without. Not all, but many. Too many.

Jewish kids are finding Orthodox Judaism gives them firmer grounding.

Huge? Do you have any proof to offer, as in links for reports or articles?

Please do not mistake my comment for any sort of self-hating “antisemitism.” I simply have a deep distaste for the manner of thinking of large parts of this population, and I do not like being near or around them. The feeling is mutual. I do not like to associate with trans-generational welfare dependents generally, and I, who cannot at present afford to fly to Israel, for instance, resent paying for their lifestyles.

The problem is that they are welfare recipients, which would be against the Torah. You want to eat, you have to work. So, they are using the system to have kids for welfare benefits but they are not earning their way as the Torah requires.

I do not wish to engage in research at the moment. I lived in Israel for years. It is not hard to find numbers. Remember there as many or more types of “orthodox Jews” as there are Christians, or more.

They have the pretense of holiness, but they are not holy people.

The Reform JINOs are fags and commies. The Orthodox lay pipe and have families. More power to ‘em.

All one needs to do is look at Israeli President Isaac HaLevi Herzog. Grandfather ‘Orthodox’ Chief Ashkenaz Rabbi; his grandson is a Leftist kook. Do you count him as an Orthodox Jew in the future Israel?

Haredi is a new term to people like me, a 66 y/o Catholic.
I’ve never heard of it before right now.
I’ve always thought highly of the Jews in a general sense, because early in life, I could see that they had a great respect for learning, and made their kids study.
That said, Wiki tells me Haredi Judaism is a group within Orthodox Judaism that is characterized by their strict adherence to Jewish Law, aka Halakha and traditions. They are opposed to most modern values and practices. It’s members are often described as Ultra Orthodox.
Haredi Jews regard themselves as the most religiously authentic group of Jews, although most other movements of Judasim disagree.

Let’s see if the Left tries to import Muslims.

I’ve gone often to my local Chabad synagogue, and they know and study and TEACH the truth of Torah.

Since the ultra-Orthodox are exempt, who will be left to serve in the Isreali Defense Force?
