do you even know the definition of zionism? Is taking the side of Alef or bet also not Zionist?

Pity you don't inform us who Ziv Lenchner is, who he represents, etc.! You just let us use our imagination, because even in Social Networks he publishes no info about himself. He must be very important according to his ideas!!!

The good Sheikh Raed Salah, has at least been tried and thrown in jail (several times) for his incitement. It's about time that some of our more insane rabbis received the same treatment. But they won't, and consequently their pronouncements will get uglier and even more dangerous.

The best definition is someone who loves Zion and believes in the comandment to settle the land. This definition even most haradim also agree with. Unfortunately its usuage got corrupted by mixing it with politics and secularism and a multitude of other mixed views to the point where it has lost its true meaning. What right has the author in these circumstances got to define it in his own narrow views to the exclusion of others.

we shall never know for sure: "did Katzav do it" ...?!! -what do you mean we know who shot Rabin....!!! They were blanks, right???? Right.....?

Who cares whether they refer to themselves - or whether others refer to them - as Zionists? First and foremost they are not Rabbis. The political affiliations are a minor point of debate.

What nonsense!!!!!!! it is the author that spews hatred and discord.Nothing is simple everything has to be checked rechecked ,clarified and verified..there were a lot of problems in the Katszav Case

Who are the only, real Zionists in Israel. These Rabbis and the people they represent. Their children are the backbone of the army and the only ones who value the land of israel for the people of Israel. All others are LOST. There is not one scintilla of corroborative evidence that a rape was commited. Just the acusations of an anonymous women who claims that she was raped nine years ago. A crime was commited against Katsav by the Israeli media and the court who are prejudice against Jews who are religious and sephardim. Please tell me where is the evidence that katsav commited a crime, rape. Where is the physical evidence? There is none! Where is the corroborative evidence? There is none. Just hatred of a good man who unfortunately is hated by influential elements of Israeli society because he is religious and sephard. This matter is a disgrace and contrary to al norms of fair play and justice. All Israelies should be ashamed and speak out against this perversion of justice.

The fact is "K" was guilty. If it had been otherwise, the letter of support would have been fitting. "K" was not measuring out justice in the absense of the law which wouldn't have been for him to do, it would have been for him to change the law. There are those of the religious community who have got so much right. Things even those who would consider themselves religious hope for. But then, there can be those who feel bound, like those issues about divorce. There are those who are still doing their best to follow the instructions and ways given by Moses in detail to avoid the penalties, find themselves in accordance with the Word, and prompt the hope, the faith and the . They have ways that are Jewish Law where the state of Israel has some laws that wouldn't be considered Jewish Law, sad to say. There is a way that a change to the religious standard comes about. But of course, it could only be in ways still befitting the Word of the Lord, it would be Zion, be inclusive of peoples and be as good as it could get. People still are putting their hope on Zion.

Being a zionist has nothing to do with supporting the current despicable, illegitimate, and non-Jewish state. I am a Zionist because I fight for establishment of a real Jewish state based on Torah law and morals. To have that holy state, we must remove the current unholy one.

Zionism is not an ideal reserved for the politically correct seculars. Some of the first zionists were religious. There is such thing as religious zionism, it didn't end up the dominant form but it exists. You have Apple Mac computers and Microsoft Windows ones. The Mac never took off in a big way but its still a computer. Its not a crime to be religious and if your a private property owner your allowed to rent or not rent to anybody you like. As for you Katsav your not president anymore and the only people who will be listening to anything you have to say is your cellmate in prison so do us all a favor and keep your mouth shut.
