mdd1 – it is not a question of what I or you would like. It is a question of which deal it will be possible to work out.

This is a very krum line of reasoning that is heard constantly from ??? ???? ???? in discussions of this sort. Torah and Mitzvos have nothing to do with “what you or I would like”, and ????? it is NOT a question of “which deal it will be possible to work out”. We are ??????? ??????? ??? ????, regardless of personal preferences. This isn’t a business deal. There is no room for sacrificing Yiddishe Neshamos for the sake of the Holy IDF, even if there IS room for endangering Yiddishe bodies ????? ?????. (The safety of our soldiers comes before the safety of enemy civilians according to Halacha, and ?????? every form of law except for Israeli Bagatz Progressive perversion.) I would not hesitate to send my sons to a real Jewish Torah army to do the Mitzvah of Hilchos Milchamah, but I would not send them to an Israeli shopping mall (for kedusha reasons), let alone to the IDF. This is completely separate from the debate on Zionism etc. On this issue there is no difference between Satmar and Rav Yitzchak Yossef, or anyone in between. Most but NOT all RZ do follow your line of reasoning, and that shows in the results…
