NEW STATEMENT: Reform Movement Responds to Israeli Government’s Vote to Severely Weaken Israel’s Supreme Court
• Real the full statement: ccarnet.org/reform-movement-…
ALT Image with text which reads: The Reform Movement in North America vehemently condemns the strongarm tactics of the current coalition as they push through this divisive legislation which imperils Israel’s already-fragile democracy… As the largest Movement in Jewish life outside of Israel, we remain committed to the State and the people of Israel, and to the values outlined in its Declaration of Independence. We are deeply committed to strengthening the institutions of Israeli civil society, specifically the Israel Movement for Reform and Progressive Judaism (IMPJ), which is leading the fight for Israel as a Jewish and democratic State

Protesters, loud and clear, booed while MK Simcha Rothman sat on stage at the Jewish Federation conference.
Brothers and Sisters in Arms interrupted his panel: "You are a criminal of the Jewish people! Shame on you! The Jewish people will never forget and never forgive!"

Now at the WZC, MK Simcha Rothman went to meet with representatives from right-wing factions. When left-wing delegates heard, they protested outside the room, chanting 'de-mo-cratia' and singing Hatikva.
Police were eventually called in to help extract him

Delegates to the World Zionist Congress chant “shame” at the stage as World Likud tries to stall the voting by running down the clock on resolutions about, LGBT Rights, Reform conversion and opposition to the judicial overhaul where they don’t have the numbers.

Listening to @ReshetBet at 10:15 am. The two broadcasters are discussing why they didn’t get married via the Rabbanut. They also have no real idea about the differences between Orthodoxy & @MasortiJudaism & @IsraelReform. Lots of work to do in this area. #Israel
