2. I sincerely hope that one day there will
olim hadashim ,   tel aviv / israel   (04.16.16)
be a national-religious PM.
3. Secular judiasm is a safeguard.
DOV ,   USA   (04.16.16)
A secular Israel is a free Israel. Israel must not hand over power to people who rule by religious laws.
4. The vue of IDF soldier with Tefilim
ORA ,   JERUSALEM   (04.16.16)
on the front or before the battle is poignant.Their connection to G-d is so strong,very few people can reach . It is heart-warming to know that more and more soldiers will ask protection to the Almighty. May G-D bless them and and bring them safely home after a complete and glorious victory.Amen,Amen. Am israel Hai!
5. Dov #3: Read the Book Of Joshua
ASTRONAUT ,   USA   (04.17.16)
Begin reading at Deuteronomy 34:9, as an introduction to Joshua: our Covenant promised by Adonai. Am Yisrael Chai!
6. Sorry, it's not obey the State or God
Avi L.   (04.17.16)
Sorry, it's not obey the State or God, it's the State or some rabbi. That's the big difference. Furthermore rabbis are dividing soldiers in the IDF, they are badmouthing non jewish like Druse and Beduins and non halakah jewish. We are loosing what gives us an edge over our ennemies and are becoming some oriental theological state. It is right to have rabbis in the army , the way we have medics. We cannot become some kind of iranian mullah state. It would be the end.
7. #4 Thank you Ora
Mike   (04.17.16)
Thank you Ora for your opinion, although you are expressing a religious belief and you should know that not everyone shares your belief or in fact believes in the existance of a so called God.
8. #4 Dov
Howard K. ,   Jerusalem   (04.17.16)
A secular Israel means more unconnected Israeli youth in L.A., NY, Miami, Berlin, Frankfurt, etc. More abortions, less replenishing of the population here in Israel. Do you really believe there is an endless supply of chilonim that will be born to forever maintain a secular Israel? All the studies and surveys (PEW Institute, for example) say not. Think carefully for whom the bell tolls and the clock ticks. Do the math.
9. Rabin's Secular Peace Fantasy goes to Trashcan of History
Tomer ,   Tel aviv   (04.17.16)
Together with that Drek, Peres and his chief idiot friend, Beilin.
10. Somebody has to defend our future, the leftists obviously
(04.18.16)
will not, so although it is problematic, we better say thanks you to the religious Zionists...
