  1. Doss take over the country every time another slice. Many years ago everything was open. As the sects get stronger the sane citizens suffer. It's a good thing they burned this temple. What did they do there besides slaughter
    Lambs and goats. There was also a statue of Yahweh to whom they bowed.

  2. In Rhodes huge fires,
    It is necessary to assess the possibility that huge fires may break out in Israel as well by: clear strips of vegetation around the houses and institutions

  3. It's a shame that all the places of entertainment should be opened for everyone who is a criminal and needs to fast, and there are many of them in the coalition and the government and their supporters. We fully observe the 10 commandments and we are exempt from fasting and mourning!!!! Still a democratic country and not messianic. The conduct of the religious and the religious voyages distance the people of Israel from the Torah of Israel

  4. To all the commenters here who want to ignore Jewish history, I just ask, would you also write like this on the eve of Memorial Day? Will someone open a store on Remembrance Day and restaurants will also say "He who doesn't like sitting in the cemetery and crying for his fallen relative?
    Would we like that a few years after the fall of our dear ones, the 14th, they would say to us, "Get off us from this day of remembrance"?
    This is not in consideration of one or another public. This is our history!

    • The truth is that remembrance days in other countries are usually days off and holidays.
      The difference probably lies in the distance from the disaster.
      Disasters that happened hundreds and thousands of years ago do not compare to disasters that happened in the last hundred years, the victims are not the same victims and the memory is not the same memory.
      On the Israeli days of remembrance, when you have people who are still alive who have lost family members, there is no fasting and hardly any closing of businesses, not to mention consideration on the part of religious people who have not experienced a personal loss (probably those who do also see the importance of the days of remembrance), at the same time everyone is expected to straighten up With the mourning of a subgroup in the population for something that happened thousands of years ago and they themselves are no longer sure what was there and who was hurt

  5. "Soon, T'Bav's organized display of hypocrisy will be closed to us with a forced shutdown of the cafes, restaurants, theaters and cinemas, and we will be forced to mourn a temple we do not want"
    (The quote from an article by Doron Arzi).
    Tonight is a good time to protest and fight religious coercion.
    Owners of restaurants and places of entertainment: develop your business. It will pay off.
    Who knows about open places in Haifa?

  6. Tisha B'Av must be respected for the Jewish people in Israel and in the Diaspora

  7. Why must we cooperate with this ridiculous law? Ninety percent of Haifa residents do not fast on Tisha B'Av. It is time to rewrite our contract as citizens with the authorities. Whoever announces that he is opening tonight, we will make an effort to support him,

  8. It is interesting that the secular side always needs to be considered...those who don't want to, should sit at home and pray. When will this nightmare end????

  9. The enforcement of closing businesses is not equal. Businesses run by non-Jews remain open. That's why you should bring in a non-Jewish straw man and continue working as usual.

  10. A little consideration of the history of the people of Israel will not harm even those who do not consider themselves part of the Jewish people.

    • The history of the people of Israel is being written today, today while you mourn the destruction of the second house, there is a tangible danger to the existence of the third house, which is our precious house these days!

      Before the "business opening ban" law was implemented in 1997, the Day of Mourning was only a reminder, at least in Haifa. Life was no less beautiful then. And there was no less consideration of the history of the people of Israel.

  11. Every year the same story from the Carmel. Some of the businesses are open. I will set an example

  12. In light of the situation, it is worth considering canceling the closing of the businesses in the 10th of Av
    At least in Haifa, to conduct itself as a normal secular state.
    concludes with the consideration of a sector that does not consider others at all. To say the least.

    • In my opinion, one day it won't hurt to close business
      And those who are sophisticated, to them I only say
      Because even on Yom Kippur they will stay at home
      Or in parks, so that they don't come in crowds to the synagogue
      Because they don't believe in Judaism...
      I would send security forces to enforce closure
      Businesses and pleasure houses in Tisha B'av.
      By the way, the doctors in the hospitals work at T. Bab
      And also in Kippur.

  13. Sunset on Wednesday the 19th of Av (evening of the 43th of Av) will be at XNUMX:XNUMX

    • Why did they close the carion already at 6 in the evening?!
      Really rude.
      Religious coercion! Rabbits
