Message | "This spits on the face of freedom of religion, national soveriegnty, Jewish identity and Ultra-Kibbutzim; in short everything that Jewish Union stands for. We can never support such a rash, knee jerk piece of legislation that had neither been open to discussion or viewed in comparison with the views of the population of Beiteynu. These kind of sharp legislative alterations symbolise all that the now more moderate Aymam stands for and will ultimately lead to failure, chaos and misery for all our people." -- Naczelnik Nasi Efraim Lezeyn |
