Let's say there is a Jewish community in Eastern Europe that has a Rav and community leaders .
But its leaders are not religious. Would there be a movement to destroy it? Would there be a mitzvah to destroy it? Why would thus be any different than the State of Israel today? Why is it that the insane religious world think there is mitzvah in destroying it, and work towards that end? [And hypocritically deny that fact.]
I will tell you why. It is because they think by doing so they are keeping the Torah. And if we are not talking about Satmar and least we are referring to all its friends and associate movements. And that means all of the insane religious world excluding the religious Zionists.
None of this would make any difference if not for that fact that this makes keeping Torah a highly ambiguous endeavor. Those that seem to keep the Torah with the most fervor and sincerity are rabid anti Semites friends of Ahmadinejad. It is in fact impossible to find any movement within the insane religious world that does not have some kind of glaring flaw. Most are pure idolatry in religious clothing.
The more religious they are, the further from the Torah they are.
If we did not have to keep Torah none of this would make the slightest difference. We could all go our merry way and write them off as lost lunatics. The problem is that we do have to keep Torah. And the presence of these poisonous people makes it nigh impossible to figure out how to go about it.
For this reason I have take the approach of recommending that people just plow through the written and Oral Torah on their own without any connection with any organization unless you have to have religious Zionist shul in your area.{Conservative and Reform are also good except that sometimes they go off in the non-religious direction too far. But even the most extreme Reform can't touch the insane religious world when it come to downright pure unadulterated Antisemitism. The the insane religious world take the pride and prize when it come to that by a long shot right next to Ahmadinejad.}
