Ultra-orthodox in Britain unwilling to share burden of defense for Israel

In one of the most disgraceful examples of Haredis opposing IDF service in Israel, all at a time when the country's still in danger of Islamic jihadism, Satmar in Britain led a whole protest against military draft, doing exactly what anti-Israelists would want and hope for:

Thousands of haredi residents of London, England, gathered outside the Israeli Embassy on Thursday to protest the conscription bill that is currently being discussed in the Knesset committees. [...]

Participating in the demonstration were members of Satmar, Ger, Belz, Viznitz, and other Hassidic courts, led by rabbis who called on their flocks to attend. Standing on two sides of the road, without blocking traffic, demonstrators chanted "Israeli government, shame on you!" in English.

Rabbi Moshe Menachem Weiss, the rabbi of the Satmar community in London, recounted a meeting with a haredi driver in Israel who is classified as a draft evader.

"I asked him why he didn't enlist, since he doesn't study in a yeshiva. He answered me: 'I'd rather they take me to prison.' I can't keep the Torah and mitzvahs in the military like I try to do now. I know that will return as a total gentile."

Sorry, but shoddy hypocrites like that are only concerned they'll abandon the the anti-patriotic Satmar way. It's also stunning how they believe virtually the entire "secular" world is nothing but filth and lewdness to the core, and shun all creativity as a result of the insular culture they're raised in. That's practically what led to October 7, 2023.

The Satmar in particular are guilty of leading to the sorry situation we're at now, which could take an eternity to repair. Worst, what they did in London is just what the Islamofascists would want. No doubt, they can't believe their luck.
