Tens of thousands rally in support of the racketeering teachers

Ignoring the needs of Israeli pupils, Israeli teachers strike for several weeks. Monopolistic extortion, breach of contract, violation of fiduciary duty are some of the charges which should be levied against the teachers. But they are guilty of something more important: Israeli education is some of the worst in the civilized world. Israeli sabra students score very poorly in the international tests. There is no quality control system for Israeli teachers who enjoy trade unionist protection for their abysmal work.
