Re: Industrialists, With the Help of the Government, Are Forcing Workers to Return to Work in Israel !

A law in Israel protects workers who are located in areas that are on
the firing line in wartime from being compelled to go to work. Workers
who, fearing for their lives during wartime, cannot be fired because
they do not appear for work. Neither can their wages be withheld from
them.

So, a law to that effect exists on the books. SO WHAT?! Since when did
the government and businesspeople in Israel ever let a little thing
like a law stand in their way?

I heard on the news at 16:00 that industrialists are applying pressure
to the workers in their plants to come to work, saying they have
"responsibilities to fulfill orders from their clients".

Here in the north, the area hardest hit by Hizbullah's missiles;
government officials have been called in to override the law and force
workers to return to work. People are afraid. They have been told to
stay in bomb shelters. Few people are in the streets. Few businesses
are open.

How dare they compel people to take their lives in their hands in order
to make money for others!

ANARCHY ! I CALL FOR ANARCHY !

If the law means nothing to the government and to the industrialists,
then there should be no laws!

It's become a machine. You can't reason with it.
