There is clear discrimination against the Haredi sector. For example, they today approved the reopening of restaurants, but if you would try to make a wedding with 50 people you would get fined. Why? What is different about that from restaurants?
-- MK Yisrael Eichler
sure, because every time I go to dinner in a restaurant we suddenly break out in 45 minutes of dancing. And people pick each other up on their shoulders for more excitement. And at weddings people sit shoulder to shoulder with people from other families rather than with their own spouse.
But besides for that, even if there were no differences, why is continuing to ban weddings discriminatory against haredim? Do non-Haredim not get married? Are only Haredim banned form holding weddings of 50 people, while non-Haredim could have large weddings? Are only non-Haredi restaurants allowed to open while Haredi restaurants are not allowed to? I need more clarity on how Haredim are being discriminated against.
I am not saying that wedding halls should not be opened. I just don't think there is any discrimination involved in the decision making on this issue.
