I'm glad the Emmanuel case is encouraging others!

mike ,   israel (formerly usa   (07.28.10)
they come together to fight the common external enemies, but fight each other like enemies in the mean time.
3. Lets see the stupid judges
gain? ,   Israel   (07.28.10)
are the parents going to jail too, are any other mothers who will suffer miscarriages too- ?! Old story as per what I heard- Only in Israel
4. Just like fanatics that start out happy...
Josh   (07.28.10)
...the teachings diverge the cult falls apart and wars within over doctrine open the eyes of the followers of the cult. Are thse people being the tail of the beast of fanaticism? ...of cult? In this case the fears of accepting friendships and foriegn teachings not handed down by the unquestionable leaders on each side have the oppressed confused enough to resent and discriminate against their brothers. Clearly if we got back to Torah and away from false discrimnatory teaching and leaders, peace would be assured. If not division and war. Torah blessings as well as Torah curses will follow on track. Woe to thse who add to Torah and then lay in the path of the oncoming Torah cuses. One Nation and One G-d. Am Israel Hai!
5. The more this happens

and is brought to the surface the better. It exposes the ugly face of Ashkenazi harediism. Racism is so ugly, so primitive and so disgusting.
6. Sefaradic Discrimination an old diseas in Israeli Socity !
Gilbert Lehmann ,   Haifa / France   (07.28.10)
I'm really getting sick of every day abuse against Sefaradic population of Israel by Ultra Orthodox Haredi and believe me pretty much almost every one! the discrimination it's not done by Haredimn Only ! Unfortunately we see all type of Race issues against middle eastern jews all over israel! they are turned down on high ranking jobs as many times even in the goverment organization which is totaly religiously Reform. most of Ashkenaz bussines owners refuse to hire sefaradim for personal racis reasons!!! Please for G-D sake wake up Israel and don't be surprized by attacksby Hezbollah or Hamas or any other Terrorist organizations while this filthiness is deep inside you! Are Israeli people blind to the reality !! why is nobody voice never heard on Sefaradic Racial Issues ? where are the good fellas and fair judges among us ? and Beside everything else, where is our morals as Jews to each other ? why we still struggle between Ashkenaz-Sefaradic Subject ? whereas at USA maority of people are really far away from Racial Issues & American Socity is well educated on this disgusting Race Differences except a small Racist minority which their voice will never going hear anyways. Israel Really Need To Look Into This Sick Old Diseas Within Itself !
7. If this is limited to haredim on haredim, and doesn't cost..
dorothy paroo ,   tel aviv   (07.28.10)
...us in taxes or in other ways, let them do as they please to each other. It's none of our business. Think of what the late PM Begin said about Sabra and Shatila.
8. what the article ignores
Golan ,   Modiin   (07.28.10)
Modiin Elite is also in charge of a part of the yeshud Hashmonaim. Last year on Rosh Hashana it sent construction equipment to break the sewer and leave it broken the entire holiday as a warning against that part of Hashmonaim not to complain about M.E.'s obligations to its tax payers. Its not Sfaradi/Ashkenasi so much as these people hate anyone not like them. They also chased my Sfaradi girlfriend out of the city because she was a divorcee, and they did not want a divorced woman in their holy little town. Dressing like a penguin does not make someone decent. And these people are anything but. (they also do not represent the Haredi public but rather they mirror the Mea Shearim/Bne Brak extremist mentality)

Dressing like a penguin does not make someone decent. And these people are anything but. (they also do not represent the Haredi public but rather they mirror the Mea Shearim/Bne Brak extremist mentality) ============== 1) don't care much for the dressing like a penguin remark -- how about sticking to the simple truth -- dressing like a 17th/18th century Polish nobleman (I'm sure there is something in the Halacha that this is the thing to do!0 2) You forgot Beit Shemesh, I have modern orthodox friends that are high tailing, or would like to high tail out of there because of the recent newcomers.
