I'll tell you right now that I got outed as an "anti-semite" AGAIN on the thread.
Try to understand that (1) I feel very strongly about the issue of State-Sanctioned Genocide of the Unwanted and (2) given the crystal clear history of US targeting of Catholics, Jews, Hispanics, Eastern Euros and other undesirables for birth control, abortion and other "reproductive rights" to keep their WASPy selves from being overrun by dysgenic sorts, I cannot for the life of me understand why the State of Israel employs such a tactic.
While I may have been a little blown away by your last post, I actually do understand your sentiment. I'm a big proponent of Catholics rearing big Catholic families myself. I see no reason either of us should fall for the WASP agit-prop designed only to maintain what population differentials they believe are in their best interests.
You have called attention to the rift in Israeli society between secular Israelis and the religious Jewish population. The seculars have always controlled the government, but since they are ardent practitioners of "family planning" while the Orthodox raise large families, their control is slipping away as the religious parties grow larger.
Since the "intifada" the religious and secular Israelis have united together against a common enemy, but every once in a while some dispute or other will flare up.
With one exception, the secular Israelis are the ones who want to make concessions and compromises to the Palestinians, while the Orthodox are more "hard line." The one exception to the Orthodox support of Israel is an oddball fringe Orthodox group called Neturei Karta which shows up at pro-Palestinian rallies. However, they are a small minority of the religious Jews.
