All of these examples demonstrate clearly that the Jewish Nation is returning to Hashem. Their hearts' desire for holiness is growing stronger by the day.
Despite this being the atmosphere within most of the nation there are still a few people in the media and government who are stuck in a dream that we are still in the old state in which ideas of apostasy are in ascendancy. They transmit on a fake frequency on which the assumption is that religion and the country are in opposition, and that the desire for a Jewish identity for the State of Israel is a concern only of the religious.
As a result people who represent the dregs of humanity, who do not represent the will of the people, monopolize that media platforms and speak out of their microphones to the entire Nation. They present a false picture of the state of the Nation.
This attitude influences all of us, and results in our forming our perspective of others based on the message we are hearing. Unfortunately the only meeting place of the various factions is not in a place of truth, rather it is in the media. We assume that the media spokespersons are representing groups that stand behind them. This creates a situation in that if one person denigrates an entire other group in the media, the denigrated group hates not just that one person, but the entire group who they imagine he represents.
Media soundbites create a false impression of the attitudes of people, and cause that we each look at others with warped glasses, that are imposed upon us by virtue of our need for newspapers and radios.
