Tonight (Thursday), President Yitzhak Herzog addressed Knesset members Gilad Karib and Alon Tal and asked them not to attend prayers at the Western Wall and to insert a Torah scroll for the prayers of the Western Wall women, the Reformers and the Conservatives, as planned.
Karib has considered in the last few hours whether to come to the place, among other things in light of the ongoing discussions and votes on the budget, and after the president's request, his demand was granted.
Intention of MK sacrificed to get to the Wall sparked fears of clashes during the prayers of the month at the Western Wall. However, following the intention of at least 20 Knesset members of the Haredi parties in the Knesset to arrive, stand in front of Caribe and block it with their bodies.
President Herzog said that "the possibility that elected officials "They will confront in the plaza of the remnant of the Temple, the holiest place for Judaism and the place to which the eyes of all the Jews in the world are drawn, evokes a deep shiver in me, especially when we remember how the conflict ended in this place about two thousand years ago."

MK Karib himself said after Herzog's address to him that he "thanked the president for his efforts to prevent an unprecedented confrontation in the Western Wall plaza, and for his willingness to take action to advance the long-standing dispute resolution. Once again proven that the Organization of Women of the Wall and the non-Orthodox are the interested party compromise on the issue of the wall and this is the message we bring with us for a meeting with the President. "
Chairman of the Religious Zionism Bezalel Smotrich:" I thank the President for his intervention provocation plaza of the Western Wall, a remnant of the Temple The Western Wall, a place of worship near the Temple Mount, to which millions of Jews have flocked and prayed for prayers in all generations.
Earlier this week, in order to prevent friction in advance, some Knesset members met with Jerusalem District Police Chief Doron Turgeman, but said there were no agreements between the parties.
The Western Wall Heritage Foundation informed the Jerusalem Police yesterday that it is removing responsibility for maintaining public order in the Western Wall plaza.

Contrary to procedures: MK Karib brought a Torah scroll into the Western Wall plaza
Yesterday, opposition leader Benjamin Netanyahu also joined the call of the ultra-Orthodox and religious parties "so that God forbid the holy place will not be created," as they put it. MK Karib commented on Netanyahu's call and wrote in a Twitter response: Wall to prevent the 'profaning the sanctity "by Women of the Wall. immediately after Mansur Abbas finished telling all the promises Netanyahu REM, I'll tell all what Netanyahu told us to conduct ultra-orthodox establishment the wall, and all."
Not yet decision of H. " As a sacrifice not to go to the Western Wall, Yochi Rapaport, the director general of the Western Wall Women, said in response that "women at the Western Wall are not allowed to hold a Torah scroll, they are not allowed to read the Torah. We are discriminated against and excluded in the holiest place for Jews. All that is left for us is to hold on to the blankets of the empty Torah scrolls, to protest the terrible injustice under the auspices of Shmuel Rabinovich. The Government of Israel must implement the outline of the Western Wall as soon as possible ".
In another statement on behalf of the women of the Western Wall, we note that "under the false guise of concern for the" sanctity of the Western Wall "the ultra-Orthodox MKs use violence and encourage their supporters to use violence against the women of the Western Wall and MK Rabbi Gilad Karib. "We do and illustrate the magnitude of their hypocrisy. We are very concerned for our safety and the safety of our supporters. The police must intervene and secure closely."

At the same time, the traditional-conservative movement calling for the implementation of the Western Wall outline solution that will calm the winds, sent letters to the prime minister and the president on the subject.
"The incidents of violence in recent months at the Western Wall must be a red light among decision-makers before more serious incidents of violence and even bloodshed occur."
The director general of the Reform movement, Anna Kislansky, added: "We hear a mobilization for an unprecedented incitement by certain political and orthodox forces against the worshipers who seek to come and pray in their own way. Tomorrow at the Western Wall.
Of course, the one who has increased, as usual, is the opposition leader Benjamin Netanyahu, who knows full well that most of the Jewish people belong to the liberal currents and still chooses to continue the destructive line he began as prime minister - trampling on the Western Wall outline. "The Diaspora, with whom I am meeting these days, expresses in my ears resentment and genuine concern in the wake of these things and great concern about the attempt to create a rift within the Jewish people for clear narrow political motives."
