Quote Of The Day
The struggle against the establishment of Torat Yisrael in the world did not start in our generation, but was even in the time of Avraham Avinu. Against Avraham they also conducted an investigation, and they threw him into a furnace. So it was throughout the generations, the battle against truth continues to this very day...
The Jewish people need to return to its ancestral lands. All the terrorists around us need to be resettled in their original lands. Give them the right of return to their original lands and only then will we have peace and security...
The avoda zara of our generation is democracy. Once it was the Baal, and the Ashtarot, and now it is democracy. Where democracy has become the style of governance, it has turned into a value. That is good for people who live a life of promiscuity, as they don't want to control themselves..
-Chief Rabbi of Kiryat Arba Dov Lior

A little over the top but there's a basic point:
ReplyDeletethe Avodah Zarah of democracy is that it is only considered good as long as the non-religious are the majority. Should the religious become the majority and take over, the same non-religious who are shouting about "democracy" will demand it be limited to prevent the religious from exercising their demographic power.
Seems very charedi to me.
