First of all the "democratic values" he lauds as being virtues of Israel that qualifies it for a greater Middle East, often clash with God's laws. Israel is not a Jewish country. It's secular.
What would have been more illumunating would have been if Klavan's video had described what kind of religous plurality would exist in a Jewish theocracy.
Someone correct me if i'm wrong, but wouldn't Christian places of worship (and possibly even Muslim ones if Kahanists had their way) have to be demolished? wouldn't Christianity itself have to be outlawed as (avodah zarah)
Perahps, Klavan should make a video showing us what would have been the status of any other religion if Kahane had been ruler of Israel?
or
a video showing us what kind of religous freedom a Torah ruled Israel would have done him more credit than this nonsense.
I am an Orthodox Jew - some would even call me 'ultra-Orthodox.' Born in Boston, I was a corporate and securities attorney in New York City for seven years before making aliya to Israel in 1991 (I don't look it but I really am that old :-). I have been happily married to the same woman for thirty-five years, and we have eight children (bli ayin hara) ranging in age from 13 to 33 years and nine grandchildren. Four of our children are married! Before I started blogging I was a heavy contributor on a number of email lists and ran an email list called the Matzav from 2000-2004.

Klavan's video appears to be propoganda.
