Black-hat Jews founding an illegal settlement in the West Bank?  Gathering to thank Hashem on Yom Yerushalayim?  Both have occured thanks to a relatively new organization – Kedushat Tziyon – headed by Rabbi Yehuda Epstein who argues that charedim in the past gave their lives for Eretz Yisrael and should strive today to create a true Torah state in the Holy Land.  In this interview, Rabbi Epstein also discusses two charedi visionaries: Isaac Breuer and Rabbi Akiva Yosef Schlesinger.
