Part 1 of 2.

Australia's George Negus of Dateline presents "Israel's Ultra Orthodox".

It seems that the unending conflict between the Israelis and the Palestinians is never out of the news, but there is another battle in the Jewish state that is far less obvious to outsiders. Most Israeli Jews consider themselves to be more secular than religious, but apparently the number of strict ultra-orthodox Jews in Israel is growing. Today they make up about 10% of Israel's population and their high birth rate will mean that within five years around a third of all Israeli Jewish children will be enrolled in ultra-orthodox schools.

  • I think i do know. ...

    I think i do know. that fact that your religious doctrine has changed and evolved dramatically over the years leads to a basic compromise. Meaning the laws and the attire of the time was very different. the fact that you now need to dress in black suits to please your god show clear disturbance by human influence not god. your dramatic rituals have also changed pointing to clear human influence. lust your life is controlled by other peoples views not your own. " A prison state of mind."
