Particularly where you say that "ultra-orthodox" is the wrong word; And the preference is for "Haredi". Indeed this is so because "ultra" suggests "too much", or "radical", when in fact anybody's views can be conceived as radical compared to a personal viewpoint. Haredi, meaning "fearful", implies the person is an observant Jew who follows as best he can the dictates of Torah. A Haredi believes in God and believes in Torah that was given to Jews at Mount Sinai 3,328 years ago. Torah for him represents absolute truth.<br /><br />I'd like to correct one thing you say about Haredis, however. You say they don't want a formal state of their own until Moshiach comes. A small minority of Haredim feel like that. Most do not. The very few that do are given disproportionate exposure because the media relishes the "treat". They are those who accompany and kiss the likes of Iran's leaders - a phenomenon other Haredis find embarrassing and extremely distasteful. It would be safe to say that 99% of Haredis want, enjoy and encourage a Jewish state. 100% of Haredis oppose a secular state, but once the state was established it can only mean that God gave the Jews this gift - again after nearly 2000 years of exile. Now, instead, Haredis seek to influence their brethren to follow the Torah.in the vanguardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11796434751654291581noreply@blogger.com
