High Court freezes IDF chief rabbi nomination over rape comments
Responding to petition by Meretz MKs, court demands Col. Eyal Karim clarify his stance before assuming the post

According to Meretz, the justices issued an injunction on the appointment, pending an affidavit from Karim on his past and current views on wartime rape and the role of women in the military.
“The rabbi needs to say he made a mistake,” said Justice Neal Hendel during the proceedings, according to Meretz.
“The question is whether in the State of Israel, which is a Jewish and democratic state, a person like this should be given an official position,” Hendel added.

Surely you did not expect this to stand in a democracy that is Israel?
