Why do you have to import them from Latvia?

If they do not like looking at the pictures,then they can leave the room and leave the knesset. These ads are for normal people and not the hara-dim!

By far the ugliest women I have ever seen in the world were on Israeli beaches.

I'm offended and more, my freedom is taken away by those offensive religious fanatics in the cabinet. Ideally they shoul stay locked in some cabinet and let the rest of get on with our lives. Their antiquated, sexist ideals and ideas about the nature of human sexuality are signs of a very sick culture. Unfortunately its one shared by billions, the world over, who repress women's rights and make all females in chattels. Feh on them!

"repress women's rights" ? The feminists might agree with the haredim, in that the women in the commercial are reduced to sex objects. And if that's the level, we might as well see some men running around half dressed.

That photo looks more like the "before" shot in an an ad for plastic surgery.

In Judaism, modesty applies to both, men and women. Why is there no protest about immodest men? Because, there isn’t nearly as much sexualizing of males. Modesty is not a women’s issue in Judaism. It is Pop Culture’s over sexualizing women that offend religious sensibilities. If Pop Culture’s over sexualized men, Jewish religious sensibilities would be equally offended. It’s Pop Culture that is chauvinistic and misogynist! It only sexualizes women, because it sees them, as sex objects.

That photo is a turn-off to Americans. Americans are the largest group of cosmetic surgery clients in the world with breast implants and breast lifts being among the top procedures. Victoria's Secret and Sports Illustrated breasts are the US ideal.

we are bancrupt if we resort to selling Israel for some bikinis. what a bad joke.

Yes, let's bash the religious people of Israel again, for not wanting to sit in a meeting with a four-foot pair of breasts staring at them in the face. Nice campaign..come to Israel..for great Latvian boobs! Forget Masada, forget the Kotel, forget the wild beauty of the Negev or the mountains of the North. It's boobs they want!! You know, if Arab MK's got offended about half-naked women in the cabinet, we would be falling over eachother not to upset their strong ancient traditions. If a couple of trout-faced dyke leftists were upset about it, they'd remove them too. But if the Haredim are upset, let's write a nasty ,snide article for all the world to read and see how much Israel hates Judaism. I guess that's why people are coming to see the breasts and not our glorious history.

The christian ones... the ugliest are the muslims

more representative of the true israel :)

Why is it that Jewish religious beliefs are not respected amongst secular Jews, but religious beliefs of other religions are respected? If Sheikh Falafel Ibn Jihad was visiting the Knesset from Saudi Arabia to discuss peace then all the seculars would respect his religious beliefs and remove all immodest pictures and paintings without doubting his motives for one second. However, if a religious Jew wants to hold his standard he is viewed as a lunatic and a fanatic. Although I am not a “Hareidi”, I would prefer my society be more like the Hareidim in terms of modesty than the secular world of Sodom and Gomorrah.

But what is the tourist Board trying the sell? Israel or sex? BTW..that pic...is it the ""before"" for a boob job ad?

you shameful, foul-mouthed person. Are these the values you are teaching your children? Is this an example of Judaism's glorious traditions you preach? I don't think so - your comments are an embarrasment to Jewish mothers and fathers.

Not just for Haredi

First of all, there's a distortion in the photo and it has nothing to do with the woman's body. And you're wrong about Americans. Brazilians undergo more plastic surgery than anybody in the world.

You Arabs are such hypocrites. Why don't you look at your own messed-up society first before criticizing others. I would rather live in Israel than in Lebanon anyday.

This lady is super, and she chooses the language that the article and picture deserve, in order to get the attention of people like you; and it works every time. She's done it before, methinks, and shut up quite a few foul mouths too, in the process She scores 'red' in Ynet every time.. She is probably a refined articulate person with a FABULOUS sense of language and humour...The rest of us enjoy her intelligent wit.

Or other images reflecting Israel's beauty. Show something that makes Israel look unique and special and intriguing. Breasts are universal, and that woman could be anyone, in any porn magazine. As a tourist I'd come to visit Israel to see its historical places of interest, not a woman's chest. That's just low class. People should rise above that kind of tacky advertising.
