Following Friday’s Women of the Wall event at the Kosel on Rosh Chodesh Sivan 5773, Kosel Rav Rabbi Shmuel Rabinowitz is calling for immediate action.
Rav Rabinowitz is calling on Minister of Religious Services (Bayit Yehudi) Naftali Bennett for formulate new guidelines to preserve the ‘minhag hamakom’, the status quo at the Kosel.
In his appeal to Bennett the rav says “in light of the painful sight last Friday, seeing our Jewish brothers fighting one another in the holiest place, I am calling on the minister to extinguish the flames of dispute at the Kosel.”
The rav calls on the tzibur at large to “Come to the holy site on Shavuos to daven in a display of unity, modesty and humility to send a clear message to the Women of the Wall who violate these three values.”

Going to Bennett? Lol! Being married to a non religious wife, Bennett is not exactly a bastion of Yiras Shomayim! Why would he care about Kvod Shomayim?
I believe the guidelines the hilonim want would prohibit gender segregation at the kossel. This is just another front in their “jihad” (insulting analogy intended) of the Lapid/Bennett alliance against the Torah world.
#3- Exactly how long do you spend on making up the stupidity that you write? Enough already! Besides that, you never answered my question that I posed last week: Why do you even care what goes on in E”Y? Do you live there? Of course not! YOU don’t have to worry. No one will infringe on your “human rights” in Flatbush.
