Dov Lipman is a very naive person. Lapid is not looking to help the charedim. What he and his party are afraid of is that the charedim that have more of-springs than the secular(that have a kid and a dog) will eventually be in the majority. That’s why they try very hard to give the charedi a hard time starve them and possible drive them out of the country.
Learning math and English in talmud torah is not a bad thing, in Europe all gedoiley Israel learned the language of the land and math. However the gedoleh Israel are afraid that this will give the secular “educators” from the secular ministry of Education a foot in their door. Next thing they will need to learn other subjects like zionism and the secular Zionist writers and thinkers.
Cutting off the funds for a talmud torah that does refuse to learn what they command is wrong . The religious Jews pay a lot of taxes to the government that is also a misconception that the charedi don’t pay taxes. As you know most taxes that are collected by the government is in form of VAT (mass erech musaf) and charedi people that have large families pay much more than the secular ones, so why have they to pay taxes to fund secular schools (that get 100% funding and they should get none? The second leader in yesh atid party called the charedim “leeches” why is Dov Lipman so upset when the charedi call Lapid an Amalek? It’s written about amalek “asher karcha baderech” the chasidish sefarim write karcha from lashon korr (cold) they wanted to bring in the Bnei Israel a ruach kefirah and that’s what Lapid wants. Just like a pig showing off his hoops to show that he is kosher so does Lapid show off his two “religious” members Lipman and Piron (and his good friend with the miniscule kippa , el duce ,Naftali Bennetto) to show that he is not anti-religious. Give him time when he does not need them anymore he will kick them out of his party so it will be Yudden-Rein.
