Recently yet another opportunity for Hareidi-bashing appeared, with the news that an 81 year-old woman is suing El Al after being forced to switch seats because a Hareidi man refused to sit next to her.
Rabbi Marc Angel commented on the incident in a short article, “Thoughts on the Scandal on an El Al Airplane.” But Rabbi Angel’s critique misses a crucial point. In fact, there’s reason to applaud one aspect of the Hareidi worldview.
