Quote of the Day
We took in thousands of Haredim and we were on our way to becoming like Bet Shemesh. We decided that we would no longer build low buildings - only buildings of 10 stories and higher. We did not call "no entry for Haredim", just "tall buildings"..
-- Mayor of Netivot Yehiel Zohar

I always find this argument strange. near Rav Shefa mall in Jerusalem there are many tall buildings of 15+ floors each filled with Haredi families. But every time a neighborhood is built the haredi reps argue it should be low buildings of 4-5 floors max so Haredim can also live there if they want.
We took in thousands of Blacks and we were on our way to becoming like Harlem. We decided that we would no longer build basketball courts - only tennis courts and golf courses. We did not call "no entry for Blacks", just "golf courses".
Charedim don't live in tall buildings? Even on the lower floors?
ReplyDeleteSounds really odd.
