"Mr.
Natan Sharansky, Chairman of the Executive
The
Jewish Agency for Israel
48
King George Street
Jerusalem

Natan, my friend,
Thank
you for your letter regarding prayer arrangements at the Western Wall, and for
your continued efforts on the subject amongst Diaspora Jewry.
A
balance must be struck between the right of every person to pray as he wishes,
and the need to balance that right with the needto avoid harming the prevailing
custom held by others who worship at the Western Wall, and we—the Government of
Israel and the leaders of the Jewish people—are responsible for finding
appropriate and balanced solutions that address everyone’s needs.
It is
in light of this worldview that I have, in recent years, actively promoted the
expansion of the prayer area in the southern part of the Western Wall, as well
as the area’s formal definition and separation from the archaeological park.
I would
be glad to join you in further examining the subject in the context of the
roundtable that we jointly head."
Our national organization, our JFNA, so desirous of being the spokesman for North American Jewry, in particular on matters such as these: silent.

Why can't these women just find another wall to pray at? At least Anat Hoffman blew and dyed her hair.
