The Tel Aviv municipality's decision to ban the placing of tefillin stalls less than 100 meters from the city's schools continues to provoke anger and anger. Corinne Gideon, a television presenter who is close to the tradition and married to a Lithuanian ultra-Orthodox family, could not disprove the municipality's decision, and in a video she posted on her Instagram account, contacted her followers and shared her feelings about the decision to keep tradition traits out of schools.

"I hear the deputy mayor of Tel Aviv talking about banning booths from standing outside schools," she was furious. "What booths? Tefillin booths of the wonderful Chabad Hasidism that deals with the love of Israel! And they're not ready for them to stand with their tefillin. "Gideon resented the fact that behind the decision was a concern about children's religion:" To say that the children are a captive audience? What will happen to the children? Will they be kidnapped and forced to repent? What's wrong with exposing these content? I do not understand".

In the video, Gideon also attacked Tel Aviv Mayor Reuven Ldiansky, a representative of the Green Secular faction, which has banned the placing of booths near schools, kindergartens, community centers and other educational institutions serving minors: "Now he says it applies to all parties who want Stand on other nonprofits as well, "Moshe Corin Gideon said," but what ?! That person is the one who issued the sticker 'Open on Tisha B'Av', which is about the most defiant thing you can do about religion. So I suspect his intentions. "

"We talked about the decision of the Tel Aviv municipality," says Boaz Klein, Chabad emissary in the city, "and then he asked to put Tefillin. He was tearful and excited and told me that no matter what everyone thinks, in the end we have a unique history for the people of Israel and we need to be connected to it, and that he himself is very happy that he has won every single time in his life to be connected to this Jewish being.
