Preparations are underway for the historical meeting on Monday night, 24 Adar I 5774 of the Moetzas Gedolei Yisrael of Shas, Agudas Yisrael and Degel Hatorah. For a first time ever, the three councils will sit in a joint meeting to address the government’s tenacious efforts to pull avreichim into the military.
In a letter sent on Shas stationary dated Sunday, 23 Adar I, sent to Shas MKs, they are instructed not to bring parliamentary aides to the Bnei Brak meeting Monday evening. The letter is signed by the party’s general-manager, Chaim Biton.
Biton explained there are 50 invited participants and if each brings one or two additional people things will get out of hand.
