MK Rabbi Yaakov Litzman expressed his protest against Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu , who chose to be present at the great Jewish Museum in Moscow , without a skullcap is not as was the case over the years, whilst he holds a Torah scroll, sacred books and Hasidism scrolls, at his official visit to the Schneerson Library.
"It's hard not to hide the shame and disgrace to see that an Israeli Prime Minister appears on an official visit at a clearly Jewish religious library, but his appearance is grating and embarrassing, being without a yarmulke throughout the visit, when among other things he held in his hands the holy books, was facing a Torah scroll and read it bareheaded. I have to protest the violation of Jewish roots, by the prime minister, "said Rabbi Litzman remarked in pain.
This is an official tour conducted by Prime Minister Netanyahu during a one and a half say visit to Moscow, during which came on the night of Yud Tes Kislev (Day of Redemption), to the great Jewish Museum, accompanied by Russia's Chief Rabbi Hgr"b Lazar. The reports which were accompanied to the visit presented Netanyahu in Schneerson library, containing hundreds of books which were restored to the historical status of Chabad Hasidism last summer, on the Day of Redemption by Russian President Vladimir Putin, but somehow the shameful appearance of the Prime Minister stood out, bareheaded, while touring and holding the holy books.
"It is distressing that the prime minister, who apparently sees himself as part of the government of destroying religion which he heads - lost minimum sensitivity required of him as representing a Jewish government in Israel, and did not bother to wear a yarmulke - the act which is understood and prompted at a sacred place in the holy scriptures, as is the case everywhere throughout the years. Appearance of Prime Minister bareheaded to the holy books in the Jewish Museum in Moscow - is blasphemy which hurts any heart, "added MK Rabbi Litzman in pain.
