Re: important: WELCOME BACK TO THE TREIFE MEDINE!

If that were the case, the government would not increase the tax on the imports davka when the haredi public needs them the most.

 And when it was convenient for them, the old guard brought whatever they wanted.

And if the were really serious, they would pass a form for EVERYBODY on the plane, with clear instructions, signature, threat of fines, everything. They wouldn't just crack down on the Charedim.

The restriction on bringing fruits and vegetables into Israel  is to prevent the spread of insects and plant diseases from one country to another. It has happened many times that an insect brought into the country can multiply rapidly and cause tremendous agricultural damage to the crops. The restriction on bringing fruits and vegetables into the country has nothing to do with anti-shemitteh feelings.
