Photo from Mekor Rishon

The man in this photo is clearly acting at the height of irresponsibility.

He is not demanding (or expecting) the State to protect him, instead he goes out every day in hot weather and cold, in sun and rain, and does his job.

He’s a farmer in the Negev.

He is also wearing a heavy and hot ceramic bullet-proof vest against the Arab snipers, now ever-present and ever-shooting since the Expulsion.

But he has the right to quit working his land (which maybe he should as it is a Shmittah year, unless it’s an Otzar Ha’Aretz/Beit Din deal) and lose his investments, property, and livelihood.

And if he “doesn’t like that deal, then he should go found his own Jewish state somewhere else” (or at least that is the opinion of one commenter who hopefully won't be coming back).
