A good friend forwarded this author the following link:

The Tel Aviv Magistrate Court rejected an appeal filed by the chareidi Bar Kol supermarket chain, which was fined NIS 309,000 for having some 1,000 items without displaying their prices as required by law. The fine was levied by the Consumer Protection Authority.

Consumer protection officials explain the fine is actually low considering the widespread violations. Bar Kol appealed, stipulating the fine was excessive and imposing a fine on a group of products is a disproportionate act. The supermarket also claimed the fine was imposed too soon after the pricing law was amended and there was not enough time to price everything. read more

In the spirit of President Trump’s withdrawal of the United States from the so-called “Iran nuclear agreement,” and events of this week between Israel and Iran in Syria, here’s a Blast from the Past:”

Annually, when we leyn Parshat Bechukotai, whether as its own Parshat or as twinned with Parshat Behar, my thoughts drift back to concerns regarding Zehut and their party platform advocating separation of religion state. These concerns were further highlighted for me with the video discussion (linked above) on Sunday, 8 May, 2018 between Moshe Feiglin and media expert Barak Moore (with whom I wrote a number of years ago on blogs: http://iris.org.il/blog/, http://www.iris.org.il/israelblog/ owned by a mutual friend). read more

I was looking for the best social media vehicle to convey this, and I sure hope that somehow, some way that this makes it to be viewed by Elor and his family.

Elor, you should never, ever again feel even a hint of negativity from within yourself, or from anyone that you ever deal with as to your actions that day and what you have been through subsequently. You epitomize what a proud Jew, and a Chayal is, or should be. May you only know good health, happiness in all things, success in all endeavors, Torah, Chupah and Good deeds, Yeledim — Torah, Chupah and Good deeds — ALL to at least 120 years. read more
