I was there but all I saw was an unbelievable kiddush hashem and the contrast to what the gedolim call a macha and what bachurim call a macha
The 20k(?) girls that were davening quietly really had a resounding message

Sounds like what all Charedi demonstrations SHOULD be like (though of course the media will choose what THEY want to show anyways).

the mass charedi demonstrations always were like that. It's the niche lunatics that attract unemployed bitter youth

Just saw an article that says that Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach was one of the founders and strong forces behind WoW!

Seems like this morning was a little calmer. The Woman of the wall were the ones complaining that the police kept them to far away.

They had the script wrong. They are supposed to destroy the beis hamikdosh next week. The police corrected them.

Guys, this is so much religious ado about nothing. Why do you even care, as long as they don't force you to do this, why would you care? To quote a modern religious jewish saying: "if you were with your face in the seifer, you wouldn't have seen it". Israel is a free country, and the wall is for everyone,...if some reform women decide to pray there...let them. By protesting, you make it worse and you make them want to provoke just to annoy you. I am a religious Jew too btw, you guys just need to learn that the world isn't a ghetto and there are people of all branches of judaism in israel, which should all EQUALLY be accepted, if anything out of respect for their choice, just like they give you the right to choose!

OK Where to begin? For one, The Kotel is not "for everyone", it is a Synagogue, just like you wouldn't like if a group of J for J set up shop in your Shul, why should the people Davening at the Kosel have to tolerate the WoW?
I'll agree with you on the point you made that the way the protests are being carried out is counterproductive. But you assertion that we should "equally accept" and legitimize "all branches of Judaism" is wrong. I respect every Jew, and don't care what they do in their private life, as long as they don't call it Judaism. Judaism is not a democracy, it's a religion.

I agree with you but you won't find sympathy on this board.
