Death and destruction all around yet YNet minds HaModia's business for it. Don't worry - the average YNet reader doesn't get their pretzel ads for hareidi newspapers.

give them up for adoption. Perhaps some other country is looking for a bunch of weird cult members? Perhaps on some other planet? Just get them out of Israel and let us Jews live in peace.

Wow, a double fail, one fail for Hamodia for rejecting the ad, and a more spectacular fail for YNet for thinking this is "news." People in Japan are suffering, and this is all you can think of to report on? Get. A. Freaking. Life.

It's news anytime Jewish people begin acting like nutty Muslim fundamentals. What's next? Burquas for everybody, including males?

If you want to do business with people you have to do it on their terms. Hamodia is not the government. Hamodia is putting its money where its mouth is. It is their right. I agree that the ad is offensive. Haredim should get together and sue against commercial and satirical use of their image. They are the not the straight man for a comedy act of some neurotic gay tattooed and pierced advertising copy writer. Who of course is not a sick cult creature, right?

I just had an unbearable urge to do this: ;-)

it's dangerous. I'm sure arabs had a hand in this. lol stoopid

Talking about expelling/imprisoning/punishing an entire group of people because they don't respond to the same advertising techniques as you do. You are a very sick critter, Jason.

it seems that the tolerant open minded ones are tolerant of views that they identify with. Have you ever considered that just as western culture is struggling to combat racism and intolerance by injecting political correctness into the public conscience so to the charedi media is censoring behavior in ads that they feel is antithetical to their belief system? In fact shame on ynet editors for letting an article that is clearly mocking the charedis for a behavior that has been standardized in western media and ynet itself for quite a while now. It is the charedi version of P.C and for ynet to mock it is to declare that they cant recognize p.c when they see it which tells me that when they toe the P.C line it for selfish reasons.

I wish all peoples had such critical thinking on what comes to them to be swallowed by advertizing companies. I am not an "ultra- orthodox",but I agree with their point.

Hamodia wont publish the word computer? Why, does it have something to do with modesty issues with computers. Do they not realize that the first pornographic material was delivered via magazine? that is hypocritical of them then. Ad-version to new technology does not make sense, we are not Amish

The only change is the direction he is looking. As strange as this sounds the paper has a right to determine what it prints. Whoever doesn't like it doesn't have to buy it.

All I want to know is: Are the pretzels any good?

Winking while holding pretzel-good. Winking while holding crotch- not good.

have waaay too much time on their hands and are worry about this piddly BS. While people don't have enough to eat, we are surrounded by enemies inside and out of Israel, politicians are robbing us blind, and winking over pretzels is a problem worth wasting breath over?? Are you kidding me??

has a long-standing anger management issue. He's probably a nice enough guy though - just given to Ynet rants that always suggest the most radical, violent solutions to the simplest problems. I am hoping this is his outlet, and when he's done treating us to his rants, he goes about a normal, peaceful life, with a wife, flowers, children, pets, etc. Afula is a nice enough place.

Try some of this nonsense in the U.S. when you are tricked out in your 17th century polish outfit. Stay in the U.S., there you have to work for a living and we do not have to pay for you. Also there are volunteers to defend you there in the military. I am sick and tired of these throwbacks to the shtetel and the ghettos.They contribute nothing and want everything. Better we should splurge on the military and make sure our soldiers are safe and not waste another agora on these parasites.Do you understand? Reread what I wrote a few times, even a dumb critter will understand.
