Recently, Israel has begun to roll out HDTV much like the rest of the world. But unlike most of the world, Israel has to cope with an ultra-fanatical religious sect known as the Haredim. Some of you might remember them from the infamous “crosswalk” article I wrote a year ago.
Essentially, these über-religious yokels follow the strictest form of Judaism. They are forbidden to watch television, films, read secular newspapers, surf the Internet for non-business purposes, etc. As a matter of fact, many phone carriers offer cell phones with limited capability just to accommodate the Haredim. But I digress (as usual.)
So when Yes TV of Israel decided to go High Def, they pulled out all the stops and went for broke. Take the Haredim and mix in a little Village People and this is what you get. This is brilliant and quite entertaining when you consider where this is airing. Bravo!
One a side note, I have to wonder what would happen if something like this aired in a Muslim country and targeted fanatical Muslims. Just a thought.

Very nice. A klezmer rendition of YMCA sung in what I presume to be Hebrew.
That was actually very entertaining. Hats off to the Israelis for now bowing to their conservative factions.
WOW, I did not know that the Haridem can move like that?
Blessed are those whose strength is in you, in whose heart are the highways to Zion
I looked over the Quran book once, I dont bleieve in it like I believe the Christian bible. I hope the Islamic muslims dont take over the world entirely in a 1000 years!
I hope the christians don’t do the same.
does anyone know of any good email lists for sale? email lists for sale are available on many websites, but I want to get guaranteed email lists because I hear they can be worlds apart in quality. One list might tell you that you can “expect” up to a 50% response which is unheard of, although most of the email list could be bounce backs, undeliverable or worse, spam complaints. So, if anyone here can help me find some good quality email lists for sale mention it here please. Thanks, Nicole
