Probably just as long as the Neturei Karta.

Tzad hashavah is they're both insufferable clowns, have the cruelty to stand next to monsters, and would be killed by those monsters in a heartbeat.

Not that what he’s saying particularly resonates, but as I suspected whoever wrote that is deliberately mangling what he said.

R’ Avigdor Miller many times said if you can’t get yourself to thank those that are doing favors/services for you then you can forget about being able to feel sincerely thankful to Hashem.
I’m not ascribing to the posted hashkafa and regarding what he said about ‘just doing their duty’, but either way R’ Miller said of course you thank the bus driver even though he’s just doing his duty. Duh.

Seems like he was saying there’s no hakaras tov needed for those that just do their duty. But either way in my opinion that’s an absolute terrible way of looking at the current situation. These soldiers are doing all of our duties as well. We all have a responsibility to wipe out those terrorists. Additionally I was bothered by what he was saying regarding being nosai ol. But I don’t want to use this forum to take apart his words.

What a sad hashkafa.

Did he say otherwise?

It's even worse than what I originally saw.

The original clip I saw said הכרת הטוב due like what's due to the garbage collectors. Here he clarifies that no הכרת הטוב is due to garbage collectors. What a sick privileged way of thinking. האם זוהי דרכה של תורה?

Can we move the hashkafa related stuff to JS? Updates and discussions on the war against Hamas are enough for this thread. No need to add our internal wars to the mix.

Nope. He said no one has this question “of what is the appropriate way of looking at them for doing these duties”
