I would like to ask the originator of this thread why he is so against the Medinat Israel?
A day or two ago, my husband and I were talking about what drives the feeling behind the Neturei Karta movement ?
We thought that perhaps it stemmed from the murder of deHaan???
You know that there are sometimes elements outside the government(or, in this case pre-government) that are rogue and commit violent acts without official sanction or are actually a separate organization, such as, the murder of Rudolf Israel Kastner. This murder, like possibly deHaan’s, could have been committed by such a rogue “CIA” type organization.
An actual act that involved the Haganah, the official pre and post government military organization, was the Altalena affair, in which many Irgun members were killed and tons of precious arms were destroyed.
Menachem Begin forgave those perpetrators and forged the united fighting force that saved the Jewish people of Israel and led to the defense of the nascent State of Israel.
What if he had held grudges and felt that his way was the only way?
G-d forbid, there would have been a massacre and, even worse, fratricide!
It is a noble role to be the “Guardians of the City” but, sometimes, HKBH may want to give others a chance to guard in a way that is easier and more appropriate for themselves.
Please don’t discount the attempts by others to serve H’ in a way, that their own way, even if it’s lacking in many aspects.
Let’s try to love one another, an excess of love over an excess of zeal.
