The product of Zionism, תוצר של הציונות

You probably are now aware of the civil war resulting from the years of tension between the Zionists and Chareidim in Eretz Yisrael. This is unfortunately the results of being subjugated to living under Zionists rule.  Strangely, this has also brought up more fractions between the already polarized sects of Orthodox Jews.  Some support what the Chareidim are doing and others denounce them.
The Vilna Gaon writes that the periods of return to the Land of Israel in the time before Moshiach will parallel the order of arrangements that Yaakov Avinu made for his family before their encounter with Esav, when they escaped Lavan. וַיָּשֶׂם אֶת-הַשְּׁפָחוֹת וְאֶת-יַלְדֵיהֶן רִאשֹׁנָה וְאֶת-לֵאָה וִילָדֶיהָ אַחֲרֹנִים וְאֶת-רָחֵל וְאֶת-יוֹסֵף אַחֲרֹנִים And he placed the maidservants and their children first and Leah and her children after, and Rachel and Joseph last. (Bereishis 33:2)

The Gaon explains the phrase 'and he placed the maidservants and their children first' as the Erev Rav who are the leaders of the people. The immigrants of the 1st and 2nd Aliyah hailed from Russia and the rest of Europe without religion or faith. 'And Leah and her children after' is explained as the ignorant but virtuous people who are subjects of the Erev Rav. Unfortunately, Israel is attracted to them because of their success, and this is the reason why the exile is so long (Even Shelaima, chapter 11). 'And Rachel and Yosef last' refers to the Torah scholars, who are in the lowest position of all. Source: Erev Rav Among Us
It looks like history is taking place just like this.  The majority of the "modern pro-Zionist religious Jews" (it's easy to identify them) are taking the side of the government -- they criticize the Charedim right and left. You have to understand where these Charedim are coming from, they live under Zionist rule. The Charedim in Chutz La'aretz have little memory of what it's like to live like this.  The American Charedim who have not lived in EY under Zionist rule do not understand, nor do they want to understand -- they are easily influenced by the Zionist media and of course, take the side of anti-Chareidim.   I don't want to name names -- but you will know right away by the names of the Rabbis who sign their support away against the Charedim, and prefer to let things be the way they are -- they still believe kiruv is possible for these Erev Rav.  So, while they are sitting "comfortably" in America, England, wherever they are trying to combat growing anti-semitism, they hurl their support towards the Zionists in Israel.
When asked: aren't we to pray for them, in order they should repent from their evil ways? He replied: three times a day in the prayer against the atheists we pray that they should be destroyed.

Moriya's Place supports the Chareidim in Israel -- they have a point, they don't have good PR, but they have a point.  How much longer are you going to tolerate the sheker in this world?
