Israel Elections Committee Censors Anti-Religious Ad

In Israel, Arutz Sheva yesterday reported that the Chairperson of the Central Elections Committee, Judge Dorit Beinish, has told the ultra-secularist Shinui party that she would order one of its campaign ads censored because it is grossly insulting to the ultra-Orthodox Jewish community. The ad depicts an obviously secular Israeli walking in the street with Hareidi (ultra-Orthodox) people hanging onto his legs. Shinui says it will appeal to the High Court of Justice.
