Rabbi Tuvia Blau: 'Don't vote for Religious Zionism party'

 Rabbi Tuvia Blau: 'Don't vote for Religious Zionism party' - Israel National News

Rabbi Blau also detailed the disadvantages that the Religious Zionism party presents for the Chabad voter: "A haredi list is not one in which the number two spot is [filled by] a woman, when there is a complete prohibition to vote for a party in which there is a woman. In addition, according to how she conducts herself, as they have publicized, she is far from being considered 'haredi.'"

"A haredi list is not one in which the candidates announce that the State of Israel 'is the beginning of our redemption,' when the Rebbe said that a statement such as this causes bloodshed and delays the Redemption. A haredi party is not one in which candidates promise to enlist yeshiva students [in the IDF]....when the Rebbe expressed his holy opinion very sharply, against enlisting yeshiva students.

"A haredi list is not one in which its candidates require National Service for girls, when the Rebbe expressed his holy opinion very sharply, against National Service for girls. A haredi list is not one where its candidates' sons learn in high school yeshivas, when the Rebbe expressed his holy opinion very sharply, against high school yeshivas.

"A haredi party is not one whose candidates ascend the Temple Mount, when the Rebbe expressed his holy opinion very sharply against ascending the Temple Mount. And most importantly, a real Chabad hasid who is connected to the Rebbe knows that it is a privilege and an obligation to fulfill the Rebbe's holy directives, even if from an emotional or logical perspective he has an issue doing so."
