  1. lkwdmama: An interesting point you’re raising. How much effort have the Torah observant MKs made to interest their secular colleagues in learning Torah, putting it to them in terms they’ll find attractive. It might do a lot of good.

  2. #1: There are at least three chareidi MKs on this list who I’m sure learn Torah. There are valid reasons for wanting to learn Arabic and there is no reason people given the opportunity shouldn’t avail themselves of it.
