MK calls rabbi a ‘chauvinist’ for comments on female soldiers
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleLabor MK Ksenia Svetlova condemns remarks made by Rabbi Yigal Levinstein against female soldiers, calling him “dim and chauvinistic.”
Levinstein, who runs a pre-army religious preparatory academy, was recorded telling recruits that female soldiers have gone “crazy” and are “not Jews” when they come out of the army.
“Don’t worry,” Svetlova says, “women will come in droves to the army and to the places where decisions are made in society, in the military and in politics.”
