[VIDEO IN EXTENDED ARTICLE]
HaGaon HaRav Baruch Mordechai Ezrachi, a member of the Moetzas Gedolei Yisrael commented at his Purim tisch on the threat of the draft into the IDF faced by the chareidi tzibur in Eretz Yisrael.
The rav describes “sharing the burden” as “norishkheit and tipshus”. He calls for increasing simcha in Torah and limud, and to continue learning and only this way will HKBH come to our assistance. “Every one of us must strive to become a gadol in his generation”.
The rav points out that “derech hateva” there is no solution and only in the merit of preparing to be moser nefesh will HKBH save us from the “gezeiras shmad”. The rav explains “We must prepare to go to prison together if need be” and this will result in HKBH intervening.

“Moetzas Gedolei Yisrael” is an inadequate identification. There are multiple such bodies. Any frum movement has one – indeed, that is probably what defines a movement as being a Torah-based movement. You need to say whose “Moetzas Gedolei Yisrael” you are talking about.
Boruch Rofeh Cholim!!
The man is back!!
