General Motti Almoz, who serves as head of the Israel Defense Forces Personnel Branch and Spokesman has called Rabbi Yigal Lewinstein’s condemnation of women in the army and mixed-gender units “inappropriate”.
Almoz refused to refer to the statements themselves, but criticized supporters of their essence. He wrote, “My brothers in arms – you are wrong, the IDF is everyone’s, women and men: dear male religious Zionist youth found with secular brethren in all ranks of the army and the religious and secular female fighters standing guard over our country, haredi-religious, members of different religions – all of Israeli society. Leave the army out of the dispute.”
