If that's how they identify, living in Israel, even less of a reason to take them seriously. Not that there was any reason to take them seriously before. They have no shame
These "Bnei Chutz Laaretz" are mostly Americans and benefit from free education in Israel plus some tax benefits available from the USA. They are also benefitting from Israeli child subsidies etc. They don't think they owe anything to anybody.
There is a bill before the US Senate that would end dual citizenship. US citizens would be required to renounce their other citizenships or forfeit their US citizenship. That would require the "Bnei Chutz Laaretz" to choose.
I do not support this bill! Jews need all the passports we can get because we never know when we will need them!
Print short booklets that cover each of the lies and a rebuttal of each of them. Then make the cover look like it is part of the event and have someone in dark pants, a white shirt and black kipa hand then out to everyone as they walk in
They don’t what the word ‘shame’ means or the words ‘sacrifice’ or ‘am Yisrael’. But they’re fine with the government giving them free money whilst they do nothing.😼
I think the most effective plan with the best statement would be:
Gather as many people as possible with signs and/or cards to give out who would only do one thing. The men would sing songs of achdus and ahavas Yisrael and emunah. That's it.
The cards and signs would say "We are your brothers. We need you. Where is your support?" The cards would have on the back stories about the sacrifices made of individuals - preferably of the people giving them out who would just say, please read about my story or that of of my son/husband/sister/friend, etc.
The idea is purely to show we are really as close as can be and any frum person would feel it but you are treating us as though we don't exist. Why? Don't we deserve respect? Appreciation? Support? Don't even push them to join the army - it won't work. Just show - but didn't say! - they're morally empty and their midos, ahavas Yisrael, etc, which they take pride in, are something they should be deeply ashamed of. Show, don't say. This will weaken their whole position and message and make people there respect you perhaps more than the speakers.
This is a message that can reach home and that they cannot avoid. Anything confrontational or controversial or that they have any opening to argue with it brush aside will fail or worse.
English speaking "bnei chutz l'aretz"? If they identify as such then why are they living here? Let them go back to the land where they can freely learn Torah :eyeroll:
"Bnei Chutz Laaretz" need to pay more attention to the US. As of early this morning, New York City now has an open anti-Semite as mayor. And he got a lot of Jewish votes, including some anti-Zionist charedim. And on the other side of the political spectrum, we have a vice president who refuses to condemn anti-Semitism among his supporters.
Pretty much every European country that was ever good for Jews eventually went bad. History may be repeating itself. And a lot of Jews are in denial.
"b'nei chutz la'aretz" lol.

I noticed there are few people who have bothered commenting here because 95% of the time the comments section is locked down. Just saying . . .
R' Slifkin, in the second to last paragraph starting with "I’m open to ideas..." you are missing a word in the sentence.
R Yehoshua Eichensteinnaaid publicly in n interview in Mishpacha that the way it was in the past, where everyone got an exemption will not continue.
