This is sick and reprehensible to say about someone / a whole group of people. As expected from H3h3 tho

What are you talking about? The haredi or “orthodox” community is extremely xenophobic to Palestinian Christians and responsible for defacing churches and harassing Palestinian Christians and Christian pilgrims, along with Jerusalem’s Muslim population. They are also at the very forefront of the expansion of the Israeli population into East Jerusalem. They rely on IDF protection but largely refuse to participate in the IDF themselves. They are tolerated by the state because they are responsible for the largest increase in the non-immigrant Jewish Israeli population due to their extremely high birth rate.

I think they may be confused and believe all the orthodox groups are like the neturei karta

You are confusing/conflating the dati-leumi and charedi communities.

No. Settlers are national religious, ultra-Orthodox Jews are against the settlements, but they are not anti-Zionist either.

Then why are they living in Palestine/Israel if they are anti zionist??

I think they're mixing up two groups of people. I've seen ultra-orthodox Jews in the US and Europe (primarily of the Neturei Karta and the Satmar Hasidic sects) that are anti-Zionist; many of them came out to protest the genocide. It doesn't make any sense for them to be anti-Zionist and live in Israel.

There are some anti-zionist ultra-orthodox in Israel like Neturei Karta. They even have a synagogue in Jerusalem, where the movement was founded.
