Gray Matter IV
Needless to say, anti-Zionist Jews who argue that the Talmud’s call not to retake Eretz Yisrael by force (Ketubot 111a) applies in our times certainly would argue that Halachah does not obligate us to expel nochri residents of Eretz Yisrael. In fact, they would argue that it is forbidden to expel nochrim from Eretz Yisrael, as this would constitute taking the land by force. We shall show, however, that even poskim of the Religious Zionist community agree that under current circumstances, there is no such obligation and there may even be a prohibition to do so.
