[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Hasidic community in Brooklyn, and their extensions in Rockland, Orange, and other counties in NY and elsewhere are not representative of the Jewish community.  [b]It's an insular cult that shuns outsiders and anyone who leaves the community.  They don't educate their boys outside of religious instruction, so the men are incapable of supporting their very large families that they have because they marry as teenagers.  They control access to the Internet so community members won't understand the outside world.  They vote as they are told, in a bloc, so they control local politicians.  They disproportionately use public services like food stamps and Medicaid, yet have the money to build illegal structures to house their population.  
[/b]
Because their origins are Jewish, they claim anti-Semitism anytime they are opposed.  I think their success may turn out to be their demise, because there is finally a pushback because the exponential growth is unsustainable when they need the largesse of the surrounding communities to survive.  Pushback is coming - the editorial is one small example of it. [/quote]

You know the exact same bolded statement can be switched out to describing some Muslim communities.  Ask Europe.  Ask India.  Take a look at places like the Middle East and Pakistan.

I'm not aware of Muslim communities like this in the US.  Feel free to share any information you have.  A closer comparison in the US would be something like the Walter Jeffs Mormon cult.  It's a fundamentalist religion that chooses to segregate themselves from the rest of the community, who don't want to follow the laws of the place they live in.  [/quote]
