They have biblical reasons for not wanting to accept Israel as a state. Has something to do with Israel being granted to the Jews at the end of the world vs. the United Nations doing it..
It's a complicated issue for the ultra religious..
Eric,
Maybe the newbies don't realize this tactic that you try to use to attack the position of Israel, but I've been here long enough to know you were going to bring it up sooner or later.. That's a low blow. You want me to find videos of Muslims suggesting that Israel should be left alone, in peace, etc.. Cause I can if you really want me to. YOu know that argument doesn't hold water.. Those Hassidic are devout in their own right.

Pretty sad when one of "our own" (i.e. Eric) goes out on a limb to foster dis-unity and attack the right of Israel to exist or to defend herself. But then again, every family has its proverbial black sheep. The good news is that the overwhelming majority of Jews know better. They have a deep appreciation for the importance of a state which was not an option back when their parents and grandparents were sent to the gas chambers at Auschwitz and Treblinka.
