John,
Israeli Jews have a lot of infighting. A lot. And may I add the infighting is
both on the religious front AND for political power. All you have to do is read
one weeks worth of Israeli newspapers to get up to date with the level of
infighting.

I think the above problems have to be solved by the non-religious rather than
by the religious.
