Israel grants the right of return to people with Jewish blood and to Jewish converts. Faced with Reformist conversions as easy as saying Allah Akbar, secular Israel has to decide on purely religious matters of conversion. The current preference given to Orthodox Judaism in unsupportable in secular framework.
Israeli Interior Ministry drafted its own rules of conversion: the study (of whatever quality) must be at least nine months long. The convert has to reside in the community the conversion takes place in. That should exclude the converts popping up to the more permissive rabbis. The draft rules sensibly try to limit reformist conversion for the sake of Israeli citizenship. That would prevent a few hundred fake converts from entering Israel – a mere drop on the background of 1.4 million Arabs already here.






Reformist conversion in Israel might not be an option, but it is already taking place in the diaspora
