Reply To: How we relate to Chillonim vs Neturei Karta

Again, I don’t believe that whether a lifestyle is easy or popular is a factor here. A tinok shenishba is one who was brought up in a certain way, and doesn’t know any better. This can be applied to NK just as much as to the irreligious.

Avram in MD:

You seem to be under the impression that NK is anti-Zionist just out of malice, denies the Holocaust, and wishes for (all?) other Jews to be killed. So I see why you hate them. However, none of that is true. NK is anti-Zionist because they believe that the ideology of Zionism is inherently evil, not because they want to hurt people. And while they did visit Ahmadinejad, they did not do so to deny the Holocaust or to support the murder of Jews; only to highlight their vehement opposition to the secular State of Israel. Not that I condone meeting with this monstrous murderer in any way; far from it. But let’s not blow this up into more than it is; a disgusting, obscene way of showing their opinion of the State of Israel, not announcing that they wish for another Holocaust.
