Halachic state

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Contents

A Halachic state in Israel would be governed by Jewish religious law much the same as Saudi-Arabia and Iran are governed by Islamic law. United Torah Judaism (UTJ), Shas and National Religious Party (NRP) in principle advocate the transformation of Israel into a Halachic state. However, they are not trying to implement this at this point in time. Hayil and other kahanists in contrast actively promote this. Meimad is the only Jewish religious political party in Israel that opposes a Halachic state.

The current legislation of the state of Israel would be abolished and replaced by Halakha.

Kahanists such as Kach and Kahane Chai advocate the abolition of democracy and the creation of a Halakhic state in its stead.

Advocates of a Halachic state in Israel argue that Halacha obliges this. Opponents argue that a Halachic state would be the end of democracy and civil rights in Israel.

Non-Jews would have the status of toshav hager and not have citizenship.
