The issue of imposing mitzvot on individuals is one thing. Another 
question is how would such a government deal with government 
services, branches, institutions? Would it impose on them Torah 
restrictions? Would Reshet Bet be allowed to broadcast on Shabbat? 
Would a radio broadcaster be allowed to mock rabbanim like they do today?

Or in other words would 120 religious Jewish MKs give the secular the 
freedoms that the state today give the religous?
