I can’t understand the comments of Yishai and the posters here. There was no discrimination. The school had two tracks, one for religious and one for non-religious (mixed dancing, treif food, etc). There were plenty of Sephardim in both tracks, Ashkenazim too. Most parents were happy with this. Any parents who wanted their kids in the religious tracks needed to agree to adhere to certain standards. The court even agreed to keep the tracks, and have a committee decide which track each girl would fit in. Only lalum did not accept this.

.4 – Shas is not making any mistake. Although there is discrimination no one is misreading the motives of the high court. Even if the high court is wrong for sending people to jail they have picked up on a very sensitive issue. A very sensitive issue indeed to the point at which you immediately declare Shas is wrong! Wrong about what? Wrong about being Sephardic? Wrong about being alive? Wrong that they have been saving Sefardim from the Apikorsoot of an Ashkenazi government? Always bear in mind Sephardim didn’t produce Reform Judaism. No my friend, Shas is right. You are wrong.

Shas are making a very big mistake. Although there might be discrimination that needs addressing, they are missreading the motives of the high court.
When the high court took away the stipends for Avreichim they didn’t discriminate between Ashkenazim or Sefardim! Or Mizrachim for that matter!
The Begats are out to distroy anything connected to torah. The next move will be to force Mizrachi kids into Public schools.
The Sefardim and Mizrachim should unite against the high court.

Yishai is in a tough spot, since so many of his Shas supporters are not hareidim.

Ramatshilo where is the discrimation as you claim Yishai sends his children to ashkenazi schools and they are not barred. It is media hipe that fuels this
