This morning we reported on today's international Israeli summit against antisemitism held in Jerusalem (see
"Never Again??" at: http://
We've
since received reports of the demonstration held there by concerned
Orthodox Jews against the Israeli government, over their drafting of
girls into the notoriously exploitive and immoral Army, and over the
often brutal religious-persecution of religious objectors, particularly
the girls currently languishing in Military Prisons Four and Six.
Well
over a dozen protesters demonstrated at a location about a five-minute
walk away from where world leaders were being hosted in Jerusalem, to
address increasing antisemitism, on the 75th anniversary of the
liberation of Auschwitz. Demonstrators prepared multiple "provocative"
signs, e.g. protesting antireligious Army racism against Jews of color,
and imploring President Putin to seek the freedom of an incarcerated
victim of IDF antireligious persecution (Lital bas Miriam).
Nevertheless,
B"H, the protest remained peaceful, because, in full view of
international media, the police employed noteworthy restraint this time,
allowing free expression of dissent without stealing signs, or
targeting demonstrators for "disciplinary" beatings and incarceration.
Protesters
held signs protesting the decades-old Israeli policy of forcing girls
into the promiscuous military environment from about 4pm to 7:30 or 8pm,
and reported a vibrant media presence (including YNet). One poster
identified the co-ed Army as "The Largest Open Human Trafficking Network
in the Mideast."
It was a
wonderful Kiddush HaShem to see that Jews truly care. It's tragic that
the Israeli government requires concerned Jews to appeal to the broader
international community in order to save our sisters from religious
persecution - by other Jews.
