It is being reported (JTA) that Agudath Israel of America has appealed to Israel’s leadership to stop the upcoming pride parade. Rabbi Shmuel Bloom, Agudah’s executive vice president, wrote to Israeli Prime Minister, asking him to “do everything in your power to see to it that this tragic sign of the decadence of our times not sully the holiness that is Yerushalayim.”
