A snake has coiled itself around Eretz Yisroel - Rabbi Miller

And this is what Rabban Yochanan ben Zakai heard: There is a snake in Yerushalyim that has twined its body around the Beis ha-Mikdash and for generations attempts have been made to loosen their hold on the sanctuary, but to no avail. You know who the snake was? The Tzaduckim and the Hurhadaisim. The Tzaduckim and the Hurhadaisim. I'll explain that. It's very important because there are analogies to that today. Today a snake has coiled itself around Eretz Yisroel. Not the Arabs. The Arabs we can compare to the Romans. The Arabs certainly would like to destroy everything chas v'shalom. But there's a snake coiled around Eretz Yisroel, worse than the snake that existed then. The atheists who are in authority, who rule Medinas Yisroel are the most dangerous serpent that ever came out from our midst. (Rabbi Avigdor Miller, The Keg and the Serpent, Tape# 52, 11:06.)

They are not too educated these commenters.  Also, they also never respond to educated responses because they have no response and possibly they are instructed not to respond so as not to help promote educated thought on the topic.

Apikorsis in Eretz Yisroel

But today, we live in an atmosphere of  kefirah  [denial]. The whole world is  kefirah  today. And today, to get  emunah   peshutah  it is not easy at all. If a person says "I have  emunah   peshutah ," it means he is just dodging his responsibility, when you have to work to get  emunah , he's looking for a  teretz  [excuse] to get out of it, that's all.  Emunah   peshutah  today is very, very rare. If you're born into a very  frum  family, you get a certain degree. But even then, from the street it comes into the house, we don't realize. Once you come into America, or you come into England or Holland, or into Eretz Yisroel today, you should know, you're soaking in  apikorsus . Even the  fruma , under the skin, they have no  emunah  at all, a very thin veneer. You have to work hard, you must labor to get  emunah  today. It's very important to listen to these lessons, and ma...
