The anti-conversion bill and the status quo
Despite being sponsored by the coalition, the bill is a gross violation of the coalition agreement which promised to support the status quo.
Dozens of rabbis, yeshiva deans, and leaders from the haredi community, including Rabbi Shimon Baadani, a member of the Shas Council of Torah Sages, travelled to Radun and prayed first at the building which formerly housed the yeshiva of the Hafetz Haim, and then by his gravesite itself.
