Remember the bad old days of segregation and racial hatred? There are those in Israel who would bring back those days – but now the inferiors are women. There is no place for bigotry in any modern state. Here’s a quote to chew on:

“A young woman attracted national attention this month when she refused to give up her seat in the front of an inter-city bus when passengers boarding in an ultra-Orthodox neighborhood demanded she move to the back.
