Chief Rabbi Yitzhak Yosef has slammed tonight (Saturday) during homework Jerusalem synagogue Hizdim giving the Minister of Religious Affairs and Chairman of Kahana Tzohar, Rabbi David Stav.
In recent months, following the exposure of the reform Kosher, Rabbi Yosef boycotting the Minister Kahane, but It seems that he has now decided to remove the gloves.
"The new law they made of kashrut is terrible and horrible. Today the chief rabbinate oversees, and there is a supervisor everywhere and a kashrut fraud department. If someone lies to us - we have the option to make fines, all sorts of things. This is a very active department. This one knows what will happen to gentile cooking? Shops that are open on Shabbat and run to give them kosher. Alas, this is a very serious loophole. How can you trust a store that is open on Shabbat that brought everything kosher and will not cook on Shabbat.
"Do you want them to bring women to be kosher overseers? How is it possible? A secular woman, not religious. Religious too - is this modesty in the people of Israel? Rabbi Feinstein writes that it is possible, but he talked about general leadership? That a woman will oversee kosher? "Israel? And especially those who bring everything in hand. Also in the army - they brought all kinds of female soldiers, non-religious women, and they became kosher overseers. They have no loyalty," he declared.
Minister Kahana,
"This loophole that any rabbi he wants will give kosher - all this is done by the Minister of Religions to please David Satyu, this conservative said about him that he has no reverence for him," the Chief Rabbi harshly attacked Rabbi Satyu.
"Note: Maran never spoke of such harsh words to a rabbi. Maran said of a rabbi that he is evil? That he has no reverence for God? That he is dangerous to Judaism? Never. The rabbi respected. Here no, the rabbi took off his gloves.
"He (Kahana HG) does everything to please (Rabbi Satyu, HG) that he will have the kosher of Tzohar rabbis. And who knows what destruction it will be? Here we declare to the dear public - not to trust all the kosher and kosher "Only good kosher people. And city rabbis who are good rabbis. There is no shortage of those who are Zionists. I warn the public not to trust the kosher people that it is a great destruction what they want to do.

"The chief rabbinate gave his life for it, and this pilot came, flying in the air, doing things. With what impudence, what lack of way. Will they do things against the chief rabbis? Not only do I object. The other rabbi also objects. He was wrong, and admits it. He "He thought he would succeed in influencing him. What influence? They came with an agenda, to trust their rabbi. Is this our Torah? Gd will have mercy," concluded Rabbi Yosef.
