THESE MISFITS SHOULD BE TOSSED OUT OF ISRAEL ---- AT THE VERY LEAST THEY SHOULD NOT RECEIVE WELFARE PAYMENTS OR SUBSIDIES TO THEIR SCHOOLS! Rabbis gave speeches in Yiddish in the Mea Shearim neighbourhood, while a banner read: 'We're Jews and therefore will not enlist in the Zionist army.'

Ultra-Orthodox Jews battle with Israeli police and eight are arrested as they protest against court ruling that they must serve in the military

  • A protest held by hundreds from the ultra-Orthodox group Eda Haredit took place in Jerusalem on Sunday
  • The protest became violent as demonstrators blocked roads and resisted efforts to disperse them by police
  • Eight rioters were arrested after they became violent and threw stones at officers, police said in a statement
  • Last week's Supreme Court decision strikes down a law exempting ultra-Orthodox men from military service


The demonstration in an ultra-Orthodox neighbourhood of the city was organised by a particularly hardline group known as the Eda Haredit.

The protest became violent when demonstrators blocked roads and resisted efforts to disperse them by riot police, mounted officers and water cannon.

'Eight rioters who used violence against police were arrested,' a police statement said in Hebrew. 
'They lay down in the road, shouting slogans against the police, some of them threw stones at police,' the statement added. 

Last week's Israeli Supreme Court decision strikes down a law exempting ultra-Orthodox men engaged in religious study from military service, saying it undermines equality.
