Bean Stalking

There is a sin that is popular among the jewish people today. 
There is a prevalence of the self righteous today who think that it is righteous to tell another jew that they should and MUST go to Israel in their lifetimes.
This is a heresy and even a sin.
It is the sin of entitlement and the sin of quarrelsome nature.
In reality, a trip to Israel for most of us over seas requires a Air plane flight or maybe a boat trip over seas.
If you are not aware, there are disasters that are minimal today with the help of a G-d who lets us have modern conveniences and innovation, but there is still a risk of death every time you get on a plane or even a boat to traverse the seas.
I personaly do not know if I will myself visit or if it will not be until I am maybe much older.
I would however be considerate and very interested perhaps in being buried in the Holy Land.
That to me might be a greater mitzvah than just simply sight seeing.

I surmise that once you pay your 6000$ or more to go to Israel, you feel entitled to tell everyone else that they must make the same "sacrifice".

I will attest to you that being jewish is more important that one must find Torah and Learning in their lifetime. 
Torah learning and investment in my beliefs far outweighs the 2-3 week tour de Israel that all the unlearned seem to think is the holiest of holies.
