Let`s move further away from any chance of a peaceful co-existence with our minorities and our neighbours and instead crystalizing state policy of giving the ultra orthodox whatever they want with nothing in return and shooting ourselves in the foot for future generations.

We can add this to the wise move of a few years ago, when the state decided to renew funding to several thousand non-existent yeshivas to prevent the ultra orthodox parties leaving (and thereby collapsing) the government coalition. Yes guys, blackmail is ok if it`s done in the name of God.
