1. Bibi don t waste your time...
ORA ,   JERUSALEM   (02.03.13)
Jewish religion is inextricably linked with Israel. This being said,the Secular jews must no way be coerced into religion,but should understand that the religious people belong here and nowhere else. We have no other choice than to live here,side by side,in mutual understanding and harmony. Seems very complicated,but where there is a will,there is a way. Let us all Jews in Israel become the best version of ourselves.
2. #1 We wasted too much time already
Moshe ,   Jerusalem   (02.04.13)
You're right that we should live side by side,in mutual understanding and harmony. And the key word is "mutual". Haredim expect everyone to understand their feelings, yet they have no respect for feelings of others. You don't want to ride a bus on Shabbat - don't. Why do they get to decide that people from Ashdod cannot take a train to Hadera on Shabbat? "Mutual" means that if I pay taxes to support you, you pay taxes to support me. If I guard a post at night in miluim to protect you - you do the same for me. Me working for you and protecting you, while you forbid me from eating stuff, doing stuff etc . This is not mutual.
3. #1 - ORA
Ariel ,   Modi'in   (02.04.13)
Your religious bigotry shows right through your supposed care for the country. How about adding some care for the people of the country? Bibi, show Ora and others that there are far more than just religious people in this country that are law-abiding, burden-bearing, tax-paying Jews that really care for this country more than they care for their own pockets!!
4. 2 I also said NO to coercion !
ORA ,   JERUSALEM   (02.04.13)
5. 3 I am perfectly aware that ...
ORA ,   JERUSALEM   (02.04.13)
Secular Jews have financial problems and Lapid will do ,with G-Ds help , what is needed to resolve them. I sincerely hope so. I just would like to remind you,Ariel,while, abroad,during economic crisis, Jews are scapegoats,in Israel ,the scapegoats are the Haredim. The words you write about the Orthodox are food for thought for antisemits.For them ALL Jews are the same. hitler did not make any distinction between Orthodox and Secular Jews. Can we try to be one for another,and be AM EHAD.
