[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One wonders why they stay there. [/quote] This is an absurd question. Why does anyone stay in their home? Moving is a huge proposition. Do you expect a group of people and all their relatives to sell their homes and move en masse? Especially the orthodox, who have not only their homes, but their synagogues, and their "eruv" -- their religious boundaries -- real physical boundaries constructed within which they can turn lights on and off on the sabbath and so forth. This question is also offensive because it reminds me of the constant "Why didn't the Jews just leave Germany?" They didn't leave because it was THEIR HOME.[/quote]
