However, it's the same ...It's a sad story. <br />However, it's the same all over the world!Not only with Sephardis and Ashkenazims They hang on to their privileges and woe on anyçone who tries to deprive them of that!<br />It was the same in 1949: my aunt Lydia had married Joe an Ashkenazi whose family came from Poland.<br />He did not stay over a month without a job whereas my other uncles <br />had to work on the roads,lifting cememt bags out of trucks!<br />I had hoped that at least in Israel society would be more equalitarian.<br />sultana LatifaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12677825.post-37981397560726394422012-01-12T07:02:27.279+00:002012-01-12T07:02:27.279+00:00The top Economist of Excellence Nessuah Investment...The top Economist of Excellence Nessuah Investment House, Shlomo Maoz, was fired by the investment company for saying today out-loud what many people say out-loud anyway and what I said just yesterday (though in much fewer words) on this blog: "you go to Bank Leumi, they're all white Ashkenazis, you go to the Supreme Court, they're all Ashkenazis" and you don't stand a chance to get your foot in the door if you're something else. His words were greeted with applause by the 100 Business administration students present except for one person: Daphni Lif of the Rothchild social protest July 14.<br /><br />The hypocrisy of the Israeli media is absolutely mindboggling:<br /><br />When Sephardi ultra-Orthodox girls were excluded from a Haredi school just for being who they are, they were silent.<br /><br />When the scandal of women exclusion by Haredis came to light, they all hurried to join the anti-Haredi posse.<br /><br />When Ethiopians protested (today) at the Knesset about housing discrimination, they politely empathized.<br /><br />But when Shlomo Maoz, a brillant and widely respected economist decries what we all know and freely criticizes the situation, he gets fired!<br /><br />This story has been repeated at every newscast this afternoon and the Israeli media is furious and very critical of the statements he made.Sylvianoreply@blogger.com
