AP posted:
A television program at the weekend told the story of how Naama had become terrified of walking to her primary school in Beit Shemesh, a Jewish city between Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, after ultra-Orthodox men spat on her, insulted her and called her a prostitute because her modest dress did not adhere exactly to their more rigorous dress code.

it's seriously messed up - both the president and prime minister of Israel have condemned this group and encouraged people to demonstrate against them in the protests that sprung up among the population.

it's even divided out the more moderate people in the ultra-orthodox sects who have come out and condemned this as well.

zealots suck.

I read this a week ago. Its important to remember that no matter what we've been taught, non-American countries just aren't as tolerant, free, or open as we have come to expect. When visiting or moving to another country, keep that in mind.

I wasn't remarking on whether or not the action was condoned or condemned. The article I read pointed out that the victims were American. I think we tend to take a lot for granted in this country.

Israel is a religious state that doesn't even allow interfaith marriage between Jews and other religions. If you want to get married to someone of another faith you have to fly to a different country to do it because Israel's laws say Jews can only marry other Jews. It is actually less progressive in this respect than nearly any of its neighbors.

Israel is not like the United States. If that was the point of the thread it's correct.

What is really ironic is that if a Jewish girl in America got spit on, you'd have CAMERA and the ADL climbing over themselves on the mainstream news channels demanding legal action be brought against the people who assaulted that girl. But if it's Jews spitting on Jews in Israel: "Uh, yea...you guys should totally protest that osmenthing. I'll uh...be over there if you need me."

Nobody every criticized Israel for not being Hypocritical.
