The chairman of the Torah Judaism Party, MK Yitzhak Pindros, calls the IDF female soldiers who are converting within the framework of a "path" very harshly, after the High Court ruling regarding the recognition of reform and conservative conversions regarding the Law of Return.
At a conference of the Kippah website and the Itim organization to be held tonight (Tuesday) and part of which was published this morning, Pindros claimed that "I am not willing to compromise on even one Shiksa or one gentile entering Israel because I want to be pluralistic and nice. It will not happen."
After MK Tehla Friedman (Yesh Atid) was furious about the fact that it was the seed of Israel, Pindros sharpened his tone: "She will be cut off, Goya.
"If she converted to Judaism, IDF conversion is not Jewish by halakhic definition. If someone marries her, the father should sit Shiva, tear it apart and say Kaddish.
Things provoked heavy anger in the political system.
The chairman of the Yesh Atid faction, MK Yair Lapid, said that "MK Pindros' statement is a dark and sad statement. What female soldier who served in the IDF is he talking about? The fighters in Karkal? The border guards at the checkpoints? The goddess you call "Shiksa" saves your life. "
MK Yair Golan (Meretz) came out strongly against him: "MK Pindros is under pressure from having his monopoly on Judaism taken away, so he despises kosher Jews who do not support his failed practice.
What a horrible statement - a military rabbi converts a female soldier or soldier who serves the security of Israel, and a rabbi who has never served, who represents a public that has never served - will disqualify her.
Orthodoxy strives against the unity of the people. "
