Litzman didn't go to Brazil for this, but participated in the local celebrations in Israel that took place in the Dan Hotel in Tel Aviv.
I think the questions and comments that arise from such an event are fairly obvious... will Litzman participate in Israel's Independence Day celebrations, as he did in Brazil's? Is this one of the things that prevented UTJ reps from taking ministerial positions until now, and now they will see the dilemma up close? Will Litzman have to participate in an official capacity, because he is a minister, whether he likes it or not? Is this another step in the integration of haredim into general society? That can't not have an affect on the community.
