Fighting Tradition: The Next Provocation of the Reformists at the Western Wall
The Reformists demand to move the national menorah at the Western Wall to the upper plaza, claiming women are being excluded. The Liba organization attacked the move: 'The Wall is not a stage for promoting agendas and provocations.' The Reformists threaten legal action.
Ahead of the Hanukkah holiday, the struggle over the Western Wall is renewed. The Reformists demand to move the national menorah from the men's section to the upper plaza, claiming women are being excluded. In a letter sent to the rabbi of the Wall and the Attorney General, the Reformists threaten to turn to legal proceedings if their demand is not accepted. The Liba organization harshly attacked the move, arguing that the Wall is not a stage for promoting agendas and provocations. The organization recalled that last year the Women of the Wall brought a menorah without permission, and that Israel's tradition and the customs of generations must be respected. The article presents only the position of the Liba organization, without a response from the Reformists.
