The issue of giyur is a complex one and it appears the new reality of the incoming coalition will create more controversy than was seen in the past regarding state conversions. Without a doubt the talk of ?additional leniencies? in the state giyur will result in controversy in the next generation. When children born to such couples become of age, their Jewishness will be a question for those who do not accept the state definition of a Jew. The chareidim, now viewing themselves as members the opposition, are already speaking of launching a new alternative giyur to bypass the state system.
Maariv quotes chareidi sources as explaining ?it depends just how far Lapid and Bennett take the giyur issue from Halacha?, towards determining if they will launch an alternative to the state system. Shas is already formulating bills to introduce in Knesset aimed at making life for the new coalition more difficult. One such bill is aimed at Yesh Atid, calling for a cabinet of a maximum of 18 ministers, in line with Yair Lapid?s election promise.
Interior Minister Eli Yishai told the press that Lapid appears to be living his dream, achieving his goal of not seeing a single chareidi in the President?s Residence when the new cabinet is photographed. He added the break with the chareidim will be remembered for years to come. ?It appears a Jew does not expel a Jew but a Jew can disqualify a Jew?, Yishai stated in reference to the slogan used during the 2005 expulsion of Jews from their homes in Gaza and N. Shomron.
Also opting to express his anger publically in Yahadut Hatorah?s Deputy Health Minister Yaakov Litzman, who tells the media that Naftali Bennett is simply lying, explaining that he personally guaranteed Bennett before signing with Yesh Atid that if he goes with a religious bloc, Yahadut Hatorah would commit to not entering the coalition without Bennett?s party and statements to the contrary are not factual. Litzman lamented the fact that a religious party signed on with Lapid and turned its back on other Torah parties, with Bayit Yehudi now part of an anti-Halacha agenda.
Aryeh Deri?s son on his Facebook page writes ??? ?? ??? ??? ?? ??? ?????? in his hint at Amalek. Posters expressing the same sentiment are also seen in Yerushalayim.
