Neturei Karta

Question: : What should we say be our opinion of the Neturei Karta in Eretz Yisroel?
You mean my opinion? My opinion is not important. Well anyhow, this gentleman asks what should we say about the Neturei Karta in Eretz Yisroel – of the shitah – of the derech of the Neturei Karta in Eretz Yisroel? Now that’s a question for which I am not suited. The truth is the Neturei Karta have among them choshuveh talmidei chachomim. But it’s true that among those who are not Neturei Karta, there are also very choshuveh talmidei chachomim. So I’m going to stick my little head between them – between Rav Amram Blau, zul’zein gezunt, a talmid chocham, and between, let’s say, what’s his name, Rav Chaskel Abramsky, who’s not Neturei Karta? Or HaRav Shach, the Rosh Yeshiva in Ponovizh Yeshiva. He’s not Neturei Karta.
In general, there’s no question that almost everything fundamental is germane to all of them. They have the same ideas. They differ on minor points. The truth is the points are very minor. Like someone once said, “All yeshiva people, all over the world, are really Neturei Karta.” That’s what somebody said. It means that they all agree with them. The question is should you do exactly this, let’s say when it comes to voting, so some Gedolim say we should vote in Eretz Yisroel to give more power to the Orthodox – Agudas Yisroel party. And the others say by voting you signify consent to the atheistic regime. So this is a delicate question and it’s up to greater people to decide it.
In general, we have to know, that more or less, everyone is in agreement. Among the good element everybody is in agreement.

Israel pays students to post favorable comments online.

https://www.facebook.com/FromDarknessToLightTRUTH/videos/760705497393111/ There's a few ways of spotting the paid comment makers. One is they generally go for ad homenum attacks. This one is an antisemite, that one is an enemy of Israel, this one is not qualified to speak. I also find it amusing that Noam Chomsky is considered not qualified to speak because his PhD is in linguistics but Alan Dershowitz, a trial attorney, is even though Chomsky is just brimming with relevant facts and Dershowitz is so clearly a manipulator. 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...
