I was not born yesterday.

I grew up in a mixed city, alongside secular neighbors, and I admit: I have never felt so rejected, so slandered, as I feel these days.

I, my children, my family.

Again and again I ask myself the million dollar question: Why are I included along with lawbreakers?

I, who follow the instructions of the corona very carefully, feel that if I do not put a huge poster on my forehead, "I keep instructions", then every passer-by will move away from me, afraid.

And I can even understand that fear and where it came from.

It started in the first wave with an ultra-Orthodox city turning red.

No one claimed not to be careful of her, but at the bottom of the line - she and only she was red.

It marked us all, the ultra-Orthodox, with the sign of Cain on our foreheads.

Towards the second wave, stubborn rumors began about no small stork that beeps at the guidelines.

Now you will expect a secularist to differentiate between an ultra-Orthodox and an ultra-Orthodox according to the color of the socks or the thickness of the shtreimel.

Then quietly joined more storks, another extremist faction, another extremist Jerusalem neighborhood - and it became difficult to digest, difficult to explain.



Minority to minority joined - and soon the entire ultra-Orthodox public found itself in the eye of the storm.

With a bright red stain, and you will prove that "your hand did not shed this blood."

You will explain that such a huge public has kept light as severe.

Chabad Chassidim, Shasniks, Lithuanians, Karlin Chassidim, Gur Chassidut - and sorry for those who accidentally dropped their names - all these and more kept and careful, and crowded houses only to make room for the isolated child, and played the same game for the 8,000th time I'm bored "and" I've already played with everything ", and there are no smartphones or computers or electronic luxury toys in homes.

And not even a piece of grass for medicine.

And behind the scenes, a national troll government operated, one that passed Resolution A in the morning, only to dismantle it with Resolution B on the eve of a day - one that plays in a mingling of voices that did not really create harmony - one that the public found difficult to trust.

Bibi and Gantz lived together, and we all felt the ship shake.

Go and explain to the ultra-Orthodox people why hundreds and thousands leave the country and not for vital purposes, but they are not allowed to enter the synagogue to pray.

Above this important stage I carry a call to the entire people of Israel.

We are brotherly people, this country exists only thanks to the fact that all its parts knew in times of trouble to unite.

Let's keep this beautiful unity, let's try to understand each other, and one to his brother is said strongly.
