Nobody is forcing anyone to attend. It isn’t difficult to realize why it is beneficial. If it isn’t your speed you should understand that other Jews travel at a different speed. It should not be so hard to be supportive of the way others choose to contribute. Especially when it is heavily supported by religious organizations. Unless there is blatant transgression of Halacha no negative that comments necessary. If the only way you see this event is as “taking away from Talmud Torah” you’re just not understanding that this is an act of Hishtadlut. (Besides, what do you think yeshiva students are going to do in the bus? Watch movies? You don’t think there will be at least some Talmud Torah, Tehilim and singing to Bore Olam?)
