Some anti-Israeli Haredi extremists
hung an effigy of a soldier next to a PLO flag in Mea Shearim:
An effigy of a Haredi IDF soldier was photographed dangling from a wire next to a Palestinian flag in the ultra-Orthodox Mea She’arim neighborhood in Jerusalem this morning, in what appeared to be an act of protest against Haredi conscription laws.
In response to a query from the Times of Israel, the Jerusalem District Police says that the hanging doll was removed by the neighborhood’s residents sometime this morning.
It was not clear what prompted its removal.
A similar effigy was seen strung up on mock gallows on the side of a building in Beit Shemesh, home to a large ultra-Orthodox Jewish community.
A sign hanging next to the dummy declared: “We will die before we are drafted.”
Police say that officers dismantled the scene and confiscated the doll, taking it back to the police station.
It gets worse, as
an ambulance was also vandalized:
A large dummy dressed as a haredi IDF soldier was hanged over the street in the Meah She'arim neighborhood in Jerusalem on Sunday setting off a flurry of outrage.
The incident joins previous incidents when effigies or signs with messages against haredi soldiers were hung in the radical enclave as part of the growing opposition by extremist groups to haredi military service.
Last week, a Magen David Adom (MDA) medical team arrived in the neighborhood to tend to a patient.
While the paramedics and EMTs were tending to the patient in their home, unknown suspects defaced the ambulance and drew swastikas on the Israeli flags that were painted on the sides of the ambulance.
When the team returned to the ambulance, they were shocked to discover the vandalism and immediately reported it to the Jerusalem Police.
It'll take ages to deprogram the 5th columnists littering this neighborhood that's one of the saddest examples of a slum rife with a socialist mindset, undoubtably derived from eastern Europe's darkest examples of the past.
