1. Oh Pah-lease Yishai is the biggest rascist that walked the
Gaddi ,   Haifa   (08.29.12)
face of this earth.
2. THIS ONLY APPLIES TO ORTHODOX RELIGIOUS SCHOOLS
stude ham   (08.29.12)
yishai's ruling does not and never will apply to any other segment of the education system. yishai remains severely bigoted.
3. interresting, ishai "against" racism ! does he know what is
hot snow ,   tlv   (08.29.12)
racism ?
4. religious single sex schools ok but this no way
zioinist forever   (08.29.12)
Single sex and religious schools are fine but schools which discriminate between Ashekenaz & Saphardim that can never be acceptable if we are talking about a publicly funded school. A Jew is a Jew no matter where they are from and if these are supposed to be religious schools then they should accept all observant Jews no matter where they came from. The Torah was given to all Jews no single group has a monopoly on it but looks it looks like these Ashkenazi Jews think it belongs exclusively to them.

7. It really shouldn't matter
Matt ,   U.S.   (08.29.12)
I believe the Ashkenazi's got the fake version of Judaism.
8. Racism
Albi ,   Ashkelon   (08.29.12)
What about Ethiopian children Mr. Minister Yishai? And your party isn't racist? The religious institutions teach more hatred and continue to be funded. We are a racist society. Period.
9. #5: Arabs get free land and don't pay taxes
5th generation ,   Israel   (08.30.12)
Jews are ho$ed when it comes to both.
10. #1
Alex   (08.30.12)
Yeah, and you know what racism is, huh...? Opposing illegal immigration doesn't make you racist, it makes you sane.
11. Horrible
Alex   (08.30.12)
Reading this made me outrageous, I didn't think such prejudice against Sephardim could still be found in Israeli society (except among some Russian mixed mischlinge). But I guess everything is possible among the hardcore Haredi. Note that I don't condemn all Haredim since I personally know many nice Haredim.
12. Showdown and a smack down
Big bad Jew ,   United States   (08.30.12)
and the winner is....??
13. 11 Alex,thanks for your last sentence

15. racism
(08.31.12)
they used to say zionism is racism. so it was true !!
16. This nonsense needs to stop
Robert ,   NY USA   (08.31.12)
I can recall certain discrimination for being just half Sephardi in a Reform Temple in the west for G-d's sake by Ashkenazim! No wonder all my brothers converted to Christianity.
17. For Miki -
Yonatan ,   Shomron, Israel   (08.31.12)
No Jews get a free ride here. What planet do you live on? Taxes are sixteen per cent for point of sale, and we all pay the taxes on our apartments, whether we rent or own. The issue is discrimination, not baseless hatred without a clue. And it is true that Arabs build on state land and do not have to get a license to build. They also do not pay taxes. So whine about that as well.
