MK Bezalel Smotrich, who heads the United Right’s National Union faction, on Tuesday discussed the ruckus surrounding his Sunday statement that he aims to “return the Torah to its foundation.”

How could he say such things??? His funding might get cut off for yeshivos ????
Did he swear on a bible or actually read one?
He trims a beard and wants a Torah state? Why not obey the commandment and see how Hashem grants one. We are Hashems. He is not a paid relative. Want Davidic freedom? Keep pure law yourself. It speaks better than man law made ordinance.
What is Netanyahu afraid of… this guy says Judaism has changed
This guy says Judaism has change to secularism, to goyishism. It’s about time it gets back to the Torah.
Why should Smotrich apologize? If anyone should apologize it should be Bibi who wants to continue making Israel a non-Jewish state causing anti-Semitism and the continuation of Arabs attacking Israel. SHAME ON BIBI!
I’m a Torah Jew, but this guy scares the kishke out of me.
