Dealing with our (strong) feelings about the Chareidi Community RZ Weekly
-
- Judaism
In this episode we do not discuss chareidim serving in the IDF. However, what we do discuss are our feelings towards the fact that chareidi yeshiva students are not serving in the IDF because they are learning Torah, while Religious Zionist yeshiva students are having their Torah learning cut short because they are needed on the battlefield. How do we respond to the fact that the learning of one group is seemingly valued less than the other? And, if chareidim are learning, we would certainly expect them all to be praying for the success of our soldiers. How do we react when some of their leaders suggest otherwise?
