3. Haredi rescue? Will they rescue Gays?

Makes you think doesn't it? As adultry is also a "death penalty" issue in Leviticus, would they rescue an aulterer or one who has raped a family member or slept with his neighbor's wife? Magen David Adom should not have religious distinction and remember folks, you pay for rescue in this country!

How does anyone know a person is gay?? You are in an accident and yell, "I am gay. I am gay." Unlikely.

The PA refused to be taken by the ambulan services of Magen David Adom- because allergic to the STAR OF DAVID / DAUD ?

If the injured person starts to wink and blow kisses at his rescuers, that could be an indication. If the injured person does not wear clean underwear, one thing is for certain: Somebody did not listen to their mother.

If I get in a real bad situation, will somebody just call the fire department rescue? By the time a Jewish outfit would have checked out my credit history, criminal background and got the low-down on my morals from friends and neighbors, I'd be a goner; and all for nothing.
8. gays adulterers

I have a hard time believing your TB to be serious and not in jest. Do you really think that they will make the distinction between gays and otherwise?? In fact from personal relationships with gayness (friendly!!!) i would prefer to approach the issue in terms of gayness not wanting to be treated by the intolerant religious paramedic. Your muckraking pseudo-thought raising statement would lend credibility to my theory. Instead of being grateful for the selfless actions of these non profit organizations , your sole interest is to create devisions and to raise doubts.

After three months of trying very hard, I can't even pronounce a Hebrew "chicken" properly and now, you're throwing that "script" out there? I give up! You win! :-)

David - the volunteer rescue service helps anyone in need. There is no test. But, you don't see the level of volunteers available in the area to find such services in downtown Tel Aviv.
12. Haredim
Thomas ,   Cleveland USA   (06.03.07)
These Haredim have lost sight of what it is they are meant to due. They are part of rescue and emergency organizations and here they are focused on fighting each other. They have all this time to fight each other, Chilonim, Masortim and Datim, but they don't fight in the army or work. Ladies and Gentlemen, these people need to have less priveledges!
