The "ultra-orthodoxes" they talk about are the haredim You can't do shit with that. From 0 to 18 males only study religious texts, that's all, no sport, no anything else, no nothing. And they all are hardcore antizionists and they have the biggest demographic growth, in 30 or 40 years they're set to become almost half of israel's population if memory serves. They are pretty much all on welfare, since they have so much religious rules they can barely run a grocery store, it has to be a grocery store for jews just like them; one type of shoes, one type of clothe, vest, hat. The food it's the same, only few religiously vetted stuffs get a pass, and they sell religious gears and that's it Of course they want male/female segregation From the standpoint of a israeli secular state it's the absolute horror, they can barely turn them into the jewish equivalent of military chaplains, it's an ever increasing bunch of religious autists that refuse to take any active role in the army because the way israel has been created goes against their rules ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2jtSEzlKTjI What do you do with that?
