Technically, it would be slightly (or not so slightly) frowned upon in the extreme right-wing circles. 2. Right. More Religious types. Perhaps the homes part, too. 3. True, not like the Intel protests, although I did hear some things got a little dicey toward the end. 1.

This was a Religious Zionist youth type of rally; most seemed into the cause, although there was a sense of joy in the air. I don’t know about that.

Why couldn't you tell him you were there already? 2. I don't know if the zeal of the younger generation has so much to do with Zionism as with wanting to preserve their homes. I'm also assuming that it was more of a Religious Zionist crowd, rather than an old-fashioned Zionism-without-G-d crowd? These are people who fervently believe that a Jew belongs in every inch of Eretz Yisroel, not just that Jews are a nation and should have a homeland. 3. Halfshared: I disagree. Most people who bother participating are probably earnest and sincere. This wasn't a riot (I don't think). Don't think Intel protests here. Different type of situation (I think). 1.

If I'd bet on more than half, I'm not sure I'd be so off... (Do any of these riots really help?)
