After her managers responded to MK Tehla Friedman's remarks, the singer's commanders decided to prosecute • Beatty was sentenced on Thursday to a suspended sentence.
Witness Beatty
Singer Adi Beatty was tried in the IDF after speaking out against MK Tehla Friedman (blue and white) who criticized the new clip that Beatty released, and caused a stir. Beatty was sentenced to five days probation.
The IDF spokesman stated that "the female soldier was subject to disciplinary action by the head of the IDF's cultural branch in light of her statement on the Internet against a Knesset member.
"The IDF takes this incident seriously, since such a statement constitutes a violation of IDF orders regarding the conduct of soldiers on social networks."
The clip that reached the Knesset
"Women can also strengthen the culture of rape," MK Tehla Friedman tweeted angrily yesterday. "Glory, if you think seeing a woman in bare clothes encourages men to rape the problem is with you and not her."
Following the storm, which is not expected to calm down in the near future, Adi Beatty's managers responded to the issue themselves, and especially to MK Friedman.
"Is the corona over?", The principals began.
"We thought there were a lot of things to deal with during the difficult time we are in. People without jobs, without subsistence, people's enterprises are collapsing - and Mrs. Tehla is dealing with it. We are sad that in 2020 an Israeli MK thinks Israeli girls should dress like Iran or the Taliban. "Freedom of expression" Freedom of art "Everyone has the right to dress and be photographed as they wish.
• Adi Beatty's clip is a wake-up call

• Watch the provocative music video by Adi Beatty
In addition, Beatty's managers noted that "in the clip you can see men on heels, women, dark-skinned, fair-skinned, Asian and all sorts of diverse figures who are all faces of all Israeli society. No hidden organ is seen in the clip. Does Mrs. Tehla also offer to close The beach? "
In conclusion, they said: "One thing can be agreed with the words of Mrs. Tehla, that indeed women also have a hand in the 'rape culture' since a tweet like hers connects one dress or another as a legitimate source of rape!".
We asked MK Friedman for a response, and this is what she had to say: “There is no difference between covering a woman from head to toe in the Taliban style, and undressing her and turning her into a sushi tray.
In both cases, the woman is viewed as a sexual object instead of being seen as a whole person, with body and soul.
I do not call for a boycott, nor for a censor, nor will I act for legislation against such videos and content.
But I call on artists to recognize their power and the responsibility they have for shaping the consciousness of children and adults alike. "
