Actually, the really orthodox Jews do not even accept the state of Israel

Actually, you don't exactly know what you're talking about. Some ultra-orthodox do not accept Zionism (believing we ought to wait for the Messiah), some accept it, and some (like the Lubavicher for example) are avid Zionists.

And you certainly won't get factual information about Jews or Israel from an anti-Semite like Thomas M. Unless you feel like reading "facts" like how the two stripes on the Israeli flag stand for the Nile and the Euprhates, LOL.

Yup, I know about that. The Jews who lived in Palestine before the arrival of the Zionists from Europe were strongly opposed to Zionism. They actually supported the PLO. Some Orthodox Jews around the world strongly oppose Israel, too. But many support it. Many who oppose it on religious grounds do not oppose it because of the harm done to the Palestinians. They believe that the Jewish aggression will cause blowback which will bring harm to Jews.
