Eretz HaKodesh | Vote to Protect Kedusha and Mesorah in Eretz Yisrael fyi

Bsd

Please visit Eretz HaKodesh website.

The delegates:


RESPECTING Torah standards of Shabbos, the Kosel, Kashrus, Conversion, Marriage and Divorce..

Ad appearing in Mishpacha Magazine Parshat Shmot, 18 Teves 5780, January 15, 2020 p13.


According to their website, Eretz HaKodesh slate is conducting a major campaign to raise awareness of the WZC elections and how voting for a Torah Slate will protect the Torah Values we hold dear in EY.

Being passive and not voting serves to empower slates that represent progressive agendas that are contrary to Torah and do  not reflect the true character of the Nation of Israel.

There are several of the 15 slates that are wholesome who love the Land of Israel in its entirety including Judea and Samaria. Eretz HaKodesh is one of them.

There are unfortunately slates which are progressive who may call themselves Zionist but are so in name only... and in the name of Democracy, equality and progressive values they partner with Israel's enemies to remove the Jewish Character from the State of Israel. We, who want Israel to retain it's Jewish character based on our Biblical Heritage do not want these parties to receive funding nor empowerment.

Our yearning for Zion goes back thousands of years. Zion is the Place where G-d commanded Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac. It is the place where G-d appeared to Jacob, the G-d of Isaac and the G-d of Abraham Promising the Land of Israel to them  and to their future seed.  

Every day, 3 times a day Jews face Jerusalem and pray to return To Zion.

 From Zion will come forth Torah.

כי מציון תצא תורה ודבר ה` מירושלים


Isaiah 2:3

Zionism is not a recent secular makeover of Judaism beginning 1948 as many erroneously believe.

Unfortunately the word Zionism has been hijacked.

The truth is, that Zionism has been around from time immemorial.  

These prominent Chareidi Rabbis understand the  imperative of being properly represented and alternatively, the threat if we are passive and do not participate in this election.

From their website

"ERETZ HAKODESH delegates represent the Yeshiva, Chasidic, Sephardic, and Israeli Torah communities of the United States.

If we are not represented, the influence, decision making, and allocation of funds will be controlled by those that do not have our best interests in mind.

Numerous Rabbanim, including HaRav Yitzchak Berkowitz and HaRav Asher Weiss of Yerushalayim, and HaRav Elya Brudny of New York, feel there is much merit in this endeavor and are encouraging us in our efforts.

We surely don't want anti Torah ideology hijacking Zionist education in Israel! 
We want the real thing!

Fyi
Who NOT to vote for... This recommendation was written by a group actually advocating for the ZOA slate (a very strong  right wing Zionistic slate that shares Biblical values as well.)
