The Mishmeret Hatzniut is no journalistic myth I can assure you from personal experience.

Nor are they the cuddly bunnies this article suggests. Rather they are a crude and often violent group of thugs closely controlled by certain Rabbis mostly alligned to the anti-zionist Eda Chareidit. It is no secret that the Chief Rabbi of that sect has been at the forefront of efforts to have these men released.

Incidentally despite their claims to be the protectors of modesty it is mostly the modesty of outsiders they enforce with a heavy hand.
The Mikve in Mea Shearim that has become a nationally known homosexual cruising ground and allegedly a preying field for paedophiles is off bounds for their brand of religious enforcement, and we all know why that is!
