Thousands protest exclusion of women in Beit Shemesh
About 4,000 citizens, along with female politicians from across the political spectrum, demonstrate Tuesday in Beit Shemesh • Prime Minister Netanyahu: Women’s exclusion goes against the spirit of the Bible and Judaism • Knesset Economic Affairs Committee to discuss gender-segregated bus lines in ultra-Orthodox neighborhoods.
It seems as though the extremists in this town will be succumbing to disproportionate force. All that’s left is bringing in the rabbis to restore the proper halachic guidelines. And maybe some really big rabbis to reinforce the differences between right and wrong.
