Many are what an American would call "Conservadox". If Conservative Jews were not poisoned by the rhetoric of "pluralism" most would find themselves able to live very comfortably in Israel.

Yaakov Kirschen is offended, nay, "outraged", by the judge's ruling. He should be more offended by the law itself, as such laws run counter to Israel's status as a secular democracy.
