1. haredim and katzav case-only 30%?
moron ,   galut   (03.14.11)
doubt is about israel's secular courts which are not friendly to them as much as case itself and well-founded on their part
2. Guilty or not guilty,that s not...
ORA ,   JERUSALEM   (03.14.11)
the question. The question is ,which law prevails in Israel,the Tora law or the State law.
3. Katzav

How much you want to bet that the 30% in this article were men.
4. 30% of haredim believe Katzav is innocent and 70% believe
(03.14.11)
there's no proof and no witness to indict him. The women accusing him of misconduct can very likely have personal reasons. Jewish law mentions such cases. That's why haredim who are knowledgeable in Talmud, unlike secular judges who are not, are skeptical about this case.
5. #3: How much do you want to bet that
Israeli 2   (03.14.11)
the judges who judged him were all women? Read talkbacker #4 and learn from it.
6. Oh right seeing as they are so informed about daily life

Strange really since their press didnt even mention the case yet they feel free to make a descision based on what exactly. Burrying your head in the sand is hardly the recipie for descision making.
7. Hi ORA, thanks for posting

Your question poses THE problem in Israeli law and society. If we are to continue being Jewish, we need to abide by Jewish (Torah) law and NOT by secular (State) law. Being Jewish means being Jewish whether one is secular, religious, ashkenaz or sephard. Otherwise Israel has no entity and Judaism WILL wither. IF Katzav committed a rape, then he IS guilty, but we do NOT know this...therefore he is NOT guilty....according to Torah law. I as a Jew prefer Torah law not because I am a male but because its serves justice.
8. 7 I agree,but we are a minority.
ORA ,   JERUSALEM   (03.15.11)
for the time being.This can change. With G Ds help.
9. 70% of Haredim: Katsav guilty!
russ ,   Tlv   (03.15.11)
10. Haredim believe Katzav is innocent.
Eli ,   Israe;   (03.15.11)
Who could possibly care what some stupid rabbis believe, especially when they don't know anything about the case? Of course the Haredim don't think for themselves, because they need those same rabbis to think for them. They are not allowed to have opinions; they are completely "other directed". What a sicko society.
