Reaction to Conference continues Reaction to the Rabbis'' conference of last week supporting the refusal of Rabbis Dov Lior and Yaacov Yosef to submit to police investigation for incitement to violence and racism, continues. In particular, the public condemnations of the conference by Rabbi Yoel Bin Nun and Rabbi Benny Lau have drawn widespread interest. In a communication to Ynet Hebrew edition, Rabbi Bin Nun was sceptical that the Rabbis participating in the conference including Rabbi Shaar Yashuv HaCohen, Chief Rabbi of Haifa and Rabbi Haim Druckman, head of Yeshivot Bnei Akiva, had even read the vengeful material contained in “Torat Hamelech”. Rabbi Lau recalled, how, as an IDF soldier in the First Lebanon War in 1982, he had listened with horror to Rabbi Lior’s fiery speeches, full of hate for non-Jews. With regard to the presence of major Zionist Rabbis at the conference he adds: “There is no way that these radical Piskei Halacha should be legitimized. The leaders of the National Zionist movement should not have attended this conference, supporting the refusal of the (police) investigation into Torat Hamelech.”
Conference of Rabbis:Forum Reaction At the emergency conference of Rabbis convened yesterday in Jerusalem, it was unanimously decided to support the right of Rabbis to create new Halachic rulings dealing with capital issues affecting Jews and non-Jews alike. The Yod Bet Heshvan Forum/ Yod Bet Heshvan movement and the Coalition of Hoshech LeGaresh comprising fifteen non-profit organizations condemns this decision and will continue the struggle to safeguard both the moral fiber and humanity of the State of Israel.
