I think we must be deep in the days of the Messiah...
Over the past few days and weeks I have seen (and read some of them) countless articles written by Dati Leumi rabbonim and lay people about how the Rabbanut is so bad, how it needs to be reformed or privatized, how the Rabbanut cannot be trusted, how the Rabbanut must be shut down.... Whether it was based on Riskin-gate or the conversion issues or kashrut issues or divorce and agunah issues, the Dati Leumi have recently been coming out en masse against the Rabbanut.
And, at the same time, over the same period, I have seen (and read some of them) countless articles from Haredi rabbonim and lay people coming out in defense of the Rabbanut,m explaining how they do such a fine job, how their role is so important, how they keep the State Jewish, how they are the only ones who can run the conversion issue in a proper manner, how the Rabbanut must be the authority on kashrut, etc.
To paraphrase Yosef, the son of Rabbi Yehoshua in Talmud Bava Basra, עולם הפוך ראיתי - I have seen an upside down (or backwards) world.
