Rav Yitzchok Berkovits, rosh yeshiva of Yeshiva Aish HaTorah and rosh kollel of the Jerusalem Kollel, has issued a strong statement regarding the current World Zionist Organization (WZO) elections, emphasizing the critical importance of participation for the Torah community.
“The election is not about us becoming Zionists,” Rav Berkovits clarified. “They are to prevent the Reform from siphoning off money and using it to bring Reform to Eretz Yisroel. They openly say it is about undoing all the accomplishments of [Eretz HaKodesh].”
Yes, it's not about you becoming Zionists. It's about you taking your greasy fingers and grabbing all the money from the pot you can get them on.
ReplyDeleteMy prediction, in 100 or so years, some Zionists will build a beit hamikdash without actually being moshiach.
DeleteInitially the hareidim will put out pashkevils, and say that the apikorsim have burned the Torah.
But when they realise they are left out of the avodah, they will find a way to take over, without accepting the beis hamikdash.
Then brisk and satmar will boycott agudah and the regular litvish world.
