Mezonos Maven, you may think that “There is no such thing as “Chareidi”. Nevertheless, a large group of people identify themselves as such today. Whether that stream of Judaism is the best representation of Har Sinai is the point of contention.

My original point to you was your assertion that all Torah Jews oppose the Yishuv.

First of all, you call it the “non-Jewish Yishuv”. Halachically, the leaders and the majority of inhabitants of this country are just as much part of clal Yisrael as anyone alive today.

Your other implication is that nobody who does support the State can be a Torah Jew. I hardly need bother posting that the chutzpah of this is enormous–who are you to say that someone is not a Torah Jew? Who set you up as a shofet of people who you do not know? Tell me, what do you think of Rav Kook? Was he not a Torah Jew? How about Rav Ovadia Yosef? Rav Shear-Yishuv Cohen?
