Haaretz Staff and Channel 10 : Ultra-Orthodox target supermarket chain open on Sabbath
Talkback
Title:Thats what you get....
Name:Angel
City: State:
Thats what you get, when politics and religion are not parted in countries.
And when ultra-orthodox can blackmail a nation into things.
Who forces them to go shopping on Sabbath? Noone.
Why dont they try to convince their fellow-citizens (oh, sorry, forgot, that many of them do not recognize Israel as a State, well, so they do not really have FELLOW-Citizens, right) of their religion. In a democratic country they are free to convince people of their believes.
And for all the rest: Let people live their religion as they want to live it. At least thats how it works in countries, where religion is what it should be: A private matter of the people. Not forced on them by the State.
