Rabbi Yaakov Meidan, dean of Yeshiva Har Etzion told a Bar-Ilan University audience that this year, Israelis should abstain from the traditional Independence Day barbeque in light of this summer�s expulsion of residents of Gush Katif and northern Samaria communities. Rabbi Meidan added that this year, Israelis should refrain from dawning holiday clothing and observe the day in �regular� work clothes, while reciting the Hallel and other prayers added to the daily service to mark the day.
