Quote of the Day
There is a difference between supporting them and between requesting things we need for our community. If they would be received in our cities with royal honors, so you would have a complaint, but if they think the fruit put out on the table is some big honor and maybe it is a sign we will joint eh coalition, so maybe we should only put out water next time..
They gave the Reform 40 million shekels, which is an average of about a million shekel for each Reform person. Tomorrow we will have a joint consultation among Shas and UTJ and Hatzionut Hadatit to determine how to explain to the public the danger in this.
-- MK Yitzchak Pindrus, regarding the coalition
if the Reform are only (about) 40 people, UTJ would have nothing to worry about. Even a lot of money (and 40million isnt really that much relative to the budget) to a community of 40 people isnt going to change much in the country.. obviously they are much more significant than that, or Pindrus and the rest of UTJ and Shas wouldnt be so worried or enraged.

I recent article in TOI about the Reform movement in Israel said that they have recently expanded to 53 Congregations in Israel.
ReplyDeleteI realize that the 40 million wouldn't go directly to reform synagogues, but if it did, that would be more than half a million Shekel for each congregation - I'm sure that any Orthodox would be happy to see that kinda money
