I AM APPALLED THIS IDOL=SIN IS EVEN CONSIDERED FOR MAKING IN ISRAEL SATAN=ANTI-CHRIST= FALSE MESSIAH WILL SLIP IN ANYWAY HE CAN... SLAM DOOR SHUT ON THIS ONE...

In keeping with the rabbis modesty concerns I suggest placing a hat and sunglasses on the statue. Problem solved!

The rabbis must really have a low opinion of mankind. Maybe instead of worrying about an immoral artwork they should so something about immoral behavior such as cheating, graft and bullying.

Rabbies have uncontrollable sexuality and a terrible sex life if they think young people will be uncontrollably aroused by a STATUE! It may be a pure projection of their own troubled psyche.

Is the planned statue really nude or is it just the fact the it is of a female? I do not know why this statue is planned and what is its significance but the public should not give in to the absurd restrictions angst females propagated by the ultra orthodox and their 16th century ideas.

Come on, couldn't you include the artist's drawing of the statue, or at least an accurate description?

People gave donations to the Chief Rabbi, thief Metzger. They were meant for charity organisations, not for his own pocket.

We must cater to the needs of those who love being offended.

thousands of years of twisted sexual approach by various Superstitions/"Religions" done by men exclusively. To paraphrase James Brown: "It's a Man's Religion"

This sounds like some kind of comedy skit, these crazy Rabbis worried about a statue. It's like when the Saudis kicked this UAE citizen out of Saudi Arabia because the Morality Police felt he was too good looking and would make women have impure thoughts!

I guess all the lovely statues of females should be covered according to the uber religious Rabbi police?

And so it is for statues. Simple.

Israel has long tradition of foreign occupation, where idols made of stone were made to signify Israel subservience. Listen to what rabeinu says. They rarely speak up without need.

have relevance to sport? I am not religious and won't be offended by statue, but do not see how female statue can be a mascot to the auditorium. Where is the relevance?

The good rabbi must have a very strange perception of his flock.

Is this the idol of ashteroth again
