I've Been Thinking:
Israel is being brought before the United Nations Human Rights Council on charges of inequality regarding the status of women.
The focus is on several issues including inequality at the Western Wall and the fact that there are certain buses that are unisex and others that are separate sex.
The Human Rights Council is asking about the treatment of women in hospitals, in clinics and even in cemeteries.
In essence these are attacks on the religious and ultra religious communities of Israel and the internal strictures which define their lives and their lives only.
Israel has dispatched a team from the defense ministry to put forth their defense. It is shocking that
Israel is even engaging these claims. Regardless of how the discussions go it will have no impact on Israel or on everyday life.
