Litzman is a good health minister who added millions to the drug basket and built hospitals • Disagree? One can argue, only without the prejudice about the ultra-Orthodox

"Kill and kill masses of people", "Imagine him", "Delusional and dangerous". These harsh things have not been written in recent days on social networks about terrorist archives or a terrorist caught on his way to murder Jews, these harsh things Jews have written about Israel's (ultra-Orthodox) Minister of Health. Litzman's role in this crisis can be debated. We Jews, in the synagogue there will be 50 worshipers and 70 opinions. that's how it is.

It's not popular to say it these days, but Litzman is in good health. He added millions of shekels to the drug basket, added medical equipment, built hospitals, introduced reforms for the elderly and programs such as pediatric dentistry, and even now that we are in the midst of a global scale epidemic, a plague that will enter history, a plague that plagues Italy and Spain, the health system of Little Israel controls the situation. If there were thousands of bodies here, would you blame Litzman? So give it a good word when it's upside down.

Disagree? All right, but the truth and only the truth, with the heart of hand, the criticism of Litzman is not particularly venomous just because of Yiddish, old and spudic? The criticism of Litzman shows something about the public's mood about what is happening in Bnei Brak. The feeling is that this is not just a sincere concern for city residents. The Israeli discourse on Bnei Brak has an aroma of prejudice. If there was an outbreak in Givatayim, no one would call the residents nicknames like "contaminated," "infected," adding cries like "shut them in their ghetto."

Yesterday, an ultra-Orthodox guy said on Twitter: "I went to a writer in a non-religious area. I was standing in line with everyone, including myself, keeping two feet and even more. An older man standing in front of me with his wife turned to me and complained that I was close to him. Just like everyone else. He answered me, 'Yes, but you're ultra-Orthodox. You have to keep a greater distance.' "
