| Message | Mr. Speaker. Religious freedom is a really important part of any democratic country. We would like to lower down country demands about religion. We should respect everyone religious views, but also respect people’s refusal to follow any religious beliefs. Meira Shimoni, MGK, Leader of !אזרחים - Citizens! in Great Knesset. |
