Subject: Re: Article in the The New Republic
Ugh! The Haredi-bashing, besides being repugnant, reveals the
pathetic need for a scapegoat -- however irrelevant the particular
scapegoat might be. (Note the logical fallacy: Haredim aren't even
tested, so they're clearly not responsible for the country's low
international standing!) To be sure, Haredi education has its
problems, but their system is not plagued by the ills that are
responsible for the slow demise of the institutions in the majority of
the country.
An intellectually honest, introspective article would have examined
the real problems within the major segment of the population, without
implying that the "fringe" elements -- Haredim, immigrants, Arabs,
etc., are the cause for failure.
