Chareidi Riots in Jerusalem

  1. I'm taken by the number of smiles. People near the camera are having fun, not upset about the cause.

  2. I think Micha's point is well taken, similar to an exchange we've had elsewhere.

    I think that the flip side of that coin is that people seem to feel a lot more safe/ less nervous than what I would imagine one would expect in a riot. Were it not for some light smoke, presumably from a garbage can or the like, I wouldn't know that this is a "riot" and not just a busy day (though I have my sound off too).

    I guess what I'm coming away with is that there not all that great at kana'us l'shem shamayim (with the smiles and what not) nor are they very good at rioting. Perhaps they should try different tactics altogether.
