A senior leader of the Lithuanian ultra-Orthodox community in Israel said Degel Hatorah representatives and voters should withdraw from all participation in national institutions, citing irreconcilable ideological differences with Zionism’s secular foundations.

“Zionism is a movement whose purpose is to establish the Jewish people on an explicitly secular foundation, rooted in heresy and rebellion against divine sovereignty. All the national institutions are built upon this ideology, Rabbi Dov Landau wrote in the haredi daily Yated Ne’eman on Tuesday.

“There is no allowance to participate with them, serve in any role within their institutions, or vote in their elections in any form whatsoever.”
