Unfortunate circumstances have made me "interrupt" my Aliyah.

Chabad and other groups are fundementally anti-Zionist.
They "scream" Mashiach Now, and "Next year in Jerusalem" (which entails the immediate ingathering of exiles), and at the same time plan for an indefinite future in exile.
Vast amounts of money is spent on new community centres all over the Diaspora sttrengthening the exile. The sad truth is that most of the wonderful S.AFrican Jewish community (especially the young Religious ones) have no intention of leaving the comfortable exile.
There are genuine "unfortunate" Jews who cannot make Aliyah, but these are a small minority.
