IsraelNationalNews highlights a video of Anat Hoffman speaking at a BBC interview about her views on women's prayer at the Western Wall.
 
Temple Mount activist Yosef Rabin sent the video of the interview to other activists Thursday and wrote in an e-mail that "Anat Hoffman's attempt at taking over the Kotel is nothing short of a declaration of war against Torah Judaism in the Land of Israel."

During the course of the interview, the BBC journalist asked, "Who is the final human authority?... Who do you believe should finally make the decision about what can and can't be done in a place like the Western Wall?"
 
Chadrei Charedim has published the opinion of Rav Chaim Kanievsky, who stated "G-d forbid making any changes to the wall. Western Wall a holy place. Have to do everything possible to keep the situation unchanged." (Google translation of Hebrew article)
 
In the interview, Ms. Hoffman says "we shouldn't mix "normalcy" and "orthodoxy." ... They are not the same concept." She defines orthodoxy as a minority.
 
Speaking of definitions, The Blaze reports on a " crossword-style vocabulary sheet from Union Grove Elementary School."
 
A mother at a Wisconsin public school said her daughter’s eighth grade class was assigned a worksheet with some eyebrow-raising definitions for “conservatism” and “liberalism.”
Conservatism, it stated in part, believes in “preserving traditional moral values by restricting personal freedoms” while liberalism is for “equality and personal freedom for everyone.”

  1. Need to comment on the two lies. #1, this feminist Anat Hoffman, who says that the Orthodox are a minority (just one of her fabrications) today; it is the fastest growing and the reform movement is going downhill fast. They represent absolutely nothing and exist only to erase Judaism in its entirety. She exposed her whole agenda and now it's all in the media in Israel. Lies always come out, and Truth always stands firm and is forever. #2, the public education given, as in the above example from Wisconsin, exposes another lie. Truth being that because Conservatism upholds traditional values, respects true personal freedoms as put forth in the U.S. Const., whereas Liberalism gives personal freedom no matter how perverse, and also gives equality, but only to those who agree with their views! Their intolerance of other views are well known.
