The TV man and columnist for "Israel Today" Avri Gilad, last Saturday night called for an absolute crown on the ultra-Orthodox cities, following Rabbi Chaim Kanievsky's decision to open all Talmud Torah and small yeshivas from this morning (Sunday).
In a poignant status he posted on Facebook and which received thousands of shares, likes and comments, Gilad wrote: "I understand that Rabbi Kanievsky ruled, or ruled on his behalf according to the videos, that the entire ultra-Orthodox education system will open tomorrow. Full. I say - Sabba. Want to open everything, no problem In ordinary Hebrew, this is called rebellion, but since the language of reality is complex, and the ultra-Orthodox hold Bibi very short, it must be assumed that the opening will take place.
"But, it can not pass quietly," Gilad declared.
"From tomorrow morning there must be an absolute crown on the red cities where the whole system opens. There is no going out and no coming in, except distribution trucks. Want to stick and stick - feel free, just do not reach our green cities, our kindergartens, our public transport, the data We want to run a system of priority different from ours - for fun, just without interfering with us. If you succeed - we will be happy to learn from you, if you fail and God forbid hundreds of patients need treatment, you will find a way to treat them. God forbid you close your general hospitals. On independence.
"The ultra-Orthodox public is actually declaring independence tonight. To the end. We wish their small and material-rich country but rich in spirit to succeed. In the future we may establish diplomatic relations. In the meantime, my feeling is that we have completely lost this public."
Gilad later added his opinion on the subject of the demonstrations, following repeated questions, and this is what he wrote: "Small demonstrations do not bother me, large ones in my eyes are not worthy."
In addition, Gilad noted that even with regard to large demonstrations - "there is still a viral difference between a crowded school and an open street."

Among the many reactions that fully supported Gilad's statement, there were also those who opposed it and also explained why.
"Unfortunately, it can not work," a surfer wrote.
"I, for example, live in a green locality and work in an orange city in a red neighborhood. The workers with me who belong to the ultra-Orthodox sector live in red neighborhoods, their brothers will go back to school, maybe they will catch up and they will come to work with me and endanger me.
"We're one ship," the follower stated, "you can't make a hole and say it's on our side, it doesn't work."
