Israel's Religiously Divided Society 

The Heredim are a bit ridiculous, they love their religion and worship. Yet refuse to join the army to defend their land. Disrespect the other Jews yet expect them to defend them...

The lady is wise in saying that nobody is going to get transferred out, everyone needs to figure it out. Basically, ppl need to be tolerance and be able to co-exist. Everyone has a responsibility to the land they live on.

13:38 "the Palestinian question." Sounds familiar

Excellent video and very relevant analysis. Many thanks.

Can't you find this among all social groups in most countries? We were talking about social groups in my sociology

Very insightful research. Helpful to hear the differing perspectives of each group within Israel.

I don't see how a militaristic, multi-factioned Israel can survive. If you appear not to desire peace and respect with your neighbors, you just won't make it in this new world. In many ominous ways, it's like the United States. Both have manipulative, money-driven governments. It all goes no where.

The Haradim are the most selfish people on this planet. They are like people that invite themselves to come and live in your house without paying rent and demanding you to support and protect them. Then telling you how to act, how to dress and what to do or not to do and if you don't adhere they become violent. Other people should look at THEM for proper morals and values?!

The Haradim need to enlist in the army!

19% of population with no voice is a significant cohort that Pew missed on completely. There’s no direct numbers of what “Non-Jewish” aka Arab Muslims views are.

I'm studying hebrew and Israeli culture and this helped me a lot to understand Israeli society. Toda Raba from Italy :)

If we believe in kindness and make it our divine religion , we will never live in troubles such as racism . We are all humans . Why we judge people by their religion . Yes we have to be secular looking for the truth , but that does not means to take science as a religion . Kindness , love , harmony , peace and equality should be our goal and religion .

Have you noticed all the ultra orthodox were and are all from Europe/America. If you have generations of your family born and always living in Israel then you are Israeli regardless of what your religion is. This is discrimination against non jews. You Americans that come to Israel and think you have more rights than people who have been there for hundreds of years shame on you. By the way I'm Jewish according to Jewish law (my late Mother was jewish)

Why did it change? Why don't the Orthodox Jew's go into the Israeli army? (sorry as a gentile I don't know what they prefer to be called). Just my curiosity. Editing this now. To add....thanks in advance for any answers.

An increasing Haredim population is going to present a lot of economic and military problems.

one thing is certain once people stop fighting between themselves communications becomes simpler🤗 as they argue 😥 it creates confusion complicated conclusions 🤔

the Orthodox/Conservative/Reform split in Judaism

I find myself in a strange position. I am a progressive and believe in women's liberation and LGBT liberation. So I cannot support much of the haredi position. However I do not like how Palestinians are treated.and therefore I agree that the haredi should not go to the military. I don't like this Israeli military. I am.a renewal Jew and yes you can be into Judaism and still support gay rights.

So...the haredi....Israel is good enough to take their public subsidies but not good enough to protect🤔🤦🏻‍♀️

Shared prosperity and shared happiness melts all ice between people. It's good to have defense, but a Peace Corp of Israelis would foster unity for a more humane purpose; in conjunction with promoting prosperity in the Palestinian regions, this would, I think, increase Harmony and Peace both within Israel and within the region. Humble humane acts of mutual friendship working together to improve all life is the path towards peace. 🌴🌄🌴

Steven Cohen summed up the issue pretty well. For Jews Israel is a democracy, for Palestinians it’s a Jewish state.

כאשר אנשים שואלים אותי מה נשמע, מה שלומך, אני עונה: אין עבודה טובה, אין כסף, אין בית, אין משפחה, אין מזל, אין כלום. וחוץ מזה - הכל בסדר! כתבתי נכון? כתבתי לא רק נכון, כתבתי מצויין.

It´s a shame. May Hashem forgive us Israel for that division and Hillul Hashem. We shall love and take care of each other; this is the commitment of the Torah and to love the Nations making all for their blessing and purity as we want for ourselves. May God forgive us and heal us, so that we understand that each one is a holy soul made by God; and we have to respect deeply the free Will the Creator gave to each one. To segregate, to isolate or to be indifferent is lack of love - a big sin - cause is our main commandment: to love. To love the Creator above everything mean to love and to care about all other human beings and crestures of Him. I am very sorry as a jewish to see such a Sinat Chinam, separation inside the jewish people. The Torah says we shall separate from the sin; and to do not make personal covenant with idol-worships (this mean marriage with people that has the same goal as you: to love and live the righteousness of the Torah; this doesnt mean to mistreat, disonor in public, dont greet dont love dont care for the other persons. This is hate, not the love that we shall live). The sin of indifference is to deny love, the most important commandment: to love one another. May Hashem have mercy on us jews. It´s very sad. It´s a tragedy. We shall be as big Family loving and caring and serving each other and so blessing the Nations so they become also holy (who are we to know if the other jew is pleasing more or not Hashem than we? why this arrogance?we shall make everything for everyone be more fruitful to the Creator, instead of segregating or mistreating-build Walls of indifference) . The Will of Hashem is that we are loving each other and serving each other as brothers and sisters that want the purity and blessing for one another. No division, no walls in the heart: only love and righteousness in the heart, thoughts, speech and deeds. May Hashem help us. May Hashem forgive us and heal us and our shame. And iluminate us and may Hashem be the only Judge for persons, let´s not judge one another wrongly; let´s give the others benefit of the doubt (only God know the love and mitsvot of a person); let´s give other free will and help in one another growth´s process- as we wished for ourselves. Let´s work for one another salvation and spiritual sucess- we are different, with different histories of life, education, etc... love those that received less than you - go give to them what they need to be a complete servant of the Creator, instead of segregate or inferiorize, or not interact . Dont cause pain for nobody-not in the spirit not in the body: make for the others how you would like them to do for you if you were in their positions." Veahavta lerecha hakamocha - Love your neighboor as yourself"-Leviticus chap. 19. May Hashem help us to love Him and other persons with all our heart. May Hashem forgive us and break the walls inside our hearts and write there His Torah. Please Respect the free will Hashem have to each one;accept the diversity Hashem created; accept other´s growth process; love, care, respect, work for the salvation of the different than you, serve Hashem and His interests.Please.

Israelis: Remember United you stand but divided you will fall

Our human father is same, religious father is same, destination is same, why we are destroyed us?

Shalom Israel. Who is in the story?. For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet. Psalms 22:16.

Muslims and Jews are so similar in all issues.

in MY opinion aslo after watching this documentary, religion is the only problem in israel, if u dont adapt u dont survive and stubborn israelis just cant do it on 11:19 best example u can have In the moment israelis will throw all their religious prejustice, there wont be many problems left in there

In Europe was spoken the "Jewish Question." Now, in Israel, they speak about the "Palestinian Question." A final solution was proposed and acted upon in the first instance. I fear the same solution, albeit as yet to a lesser degree, is spoken of and acted upon in the second instance.

Facinating. After 2000 years so little has changed. The only major difference between Christ's day and ours is that nowadays the Sadducees are lax on both religion AND law, not lax on religion but harsh on law.

Why does it always seem like there is something y’all are not saying??

As I understand this JUDAISM, is that, it is too religious. They always ask GOD for help in time of WAR even they are given ARMS by GOD to protect themselves. My opinion, this is ridiculous.

Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life.

And honestly I do not believe that Israel can be both Jewish and democratic. I used to believe it could and I no longer do. Let's have either a bi national state,. A federation with 2 semi-permiable states within a larger central government. i no longer think that 2 states will work. Or one secular state for all

You lost me when you showed Dana Weiss. I really don't like her and their opinions.

The Arab Israeli woman. Try living in one of the many Muslim states as a Jew, Hindu or Christian.

❤Palatine❤

Interesting

The Jewish religion seem a wonderful social, oral tradition born and realizing its social contract through the to much of the worst of tradegy. But it a shame the state of Israel seems to only drag it down as the power of the state, has conveyed the wrong message one of the victims of history. It seems the tables have turned and they have made their all to brutal history and brutalized another people. It's a shame but perhaps that is history that is how a recorded trauma shows itself but to recycle itself, the Stae of Isreal is a shame is asshonda. Jewish Birthright trips to Isreal, every citizen participating in it army given a certain age has laid waste to a once great religious tradition and sharing itself with a wider community. Nothing ridiculous words such as Judao Christian values mean nothing and ment persecution/ prisoner complex Althea way to the gates of Ashwitz. What has power done to its religion once so proud, but the state and the trappings of power to make a whore of it.

Israel has many proof in histories..in bible...

Why the absolute f is it so divided , just exist and do your own thing ffs , you're all wasting your time on this planet playing these religious games that are so divisive and ostracising to people if they don't believe the same thing.....just be peaceful you've only got one life....

The problem of Israeli society is simple: JEREMIAH 6:16-19: " 16 Thus saith the Lord, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the OLD PATHS , where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein. 17 Also I set watchmen over you, saying, Hearken to the sound of the trumpet. But they said, We will not hearken. 18 Therefore hear, ye nations, and know, O congregation, what is among them. 19 Hear, O earth: behold, I will bring evil upon this people, even the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not hearkened unto my words, nor to my law, but rejected it.

The very Torah they spend their lives studying is the very thing that condemns them.

It's not the issue with Jews and Arabs, the issue is Jews and Jews as I can never get along especially maya shurim

"No one is going away" "no one is being shifted, transferred, all of a sudden to a new homeland". Interesting. I understand that this is talking about the Jewish communities, however, what about the millions of Palestinians that are dead? The Christians that are living through this conflict? In fact, we all know that many Palestinians are the ones that had to find a new home for safety and security. What about the actual Palestinians?? You act as if there aren't actual Palestinians that are fighting for PALESTINE and are living in an ongoing war zone with the Israeli military that are backed by the US, the richest country.

🤔

The Palestinians need to have their own state. It's been way to long and the way Israel treats the Palestinians is more than UnGodly. For such a religious country who claim the bible is what they live by sure don't practice what it preaches. If the UN can give Israel a state then they should be able to give the Palestinians a state and the conflict won't be as bad as it is today not saying that would fix the entire problem but it would be a good start.

Wrong! Some groups will be running away!!

Before Abraham we are.

All.ah prophet nabi is poloweng allah becouse a correctly god i allah and hiven gided and suceis every one order god is god allah world islam mosles WI have correctly gided ....takbe allah ho akbar

I am an idol worshiper Amalekite 🤣

I have the solution 2 states religious jew and Muslims together and secular jew and Arab

Israel hatred for muslims will divide them becuase thats what we cant see but GOD (ALLAH) is mercifull Its shamefull that israel is doing very bad to palestine and the whole world is silent when the humans cannot stop the oppression then Allah can show his power which is unlimited ❤️❤️

Islam in moslims is correctly gided like a quraan islams

I think Israel needs to make up their mind whether they want to follow God and Christ or whether they want to follow another

Lets make something so basic and make it overly complicated. Religion poisons everything.

All I see is Palestine

🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷

🔯

Israel is a jewish state with the orthodox in the majority.😊

Between the wars Europe shook the jewish joke.....now USA wears it.....jejejeje

The jewish god like all gods is a bloody god.....but he demands sacrifices mainly fm the weak and the poor...

The contract required for all Jews to unite is Jesus . I feel he is coming . 🙏🏻 Then they will forgive.
