| Video Discription | THE RUNDOWN | Israel's Orthodox Jewish party, Shas, has fought for years to maintain that Israel's rabbinical council control religious and some civil affairs, including marriage and divorce. Such control has led to a strain in relations with Jews in the diaspora, mainly in the U.S. Party leader Aryeh Deri discusses with hosts Nurit Ben and Calev Ben-David. Story: Aryeh Deri, leader of Israel’s ultra-Orthodox Shas political faction, railed against more liberal streams of Judaism for 'inciting' contention on matters such as non-Orthodox conversions, pluralistic marriages, and egalitarian prayer at the Western Wall holy site in Jerusalem, saying in an interview with i24NEWS on Monday that Diaspora Jews should leave their controversies at home. "First of all...A Jew, whoever and wherever he is, is a Jew...it doesn't matter whether he's a Reform Jew or a Conservative Jew or an Orthodox Jew,” he said, adding that the State of Israel, however, is not built for three streams of Judaism. 'We have one Judaism here in Israel, we’re not in the Diaspora,' he said. 'I’m saying this most specifically to the Jews in the United States: Don’t bring your controversies here to Israel.' 'It’s taken us 70 years to reach a status quo so that the Ashkenazi, the religious, the secular can all live together. Don’t destroy it with your controversy...There is a mentality in Israel, we have customs in Israel, don’t change them.' One of the most contentious issues fueling the rift between the two Jewish communities is the status of egalitarian prayer at the Western Wall -- the holiest site in Judaism. Reform activists have long called for the creation of a mixed-gender non-Orthodox prayer section where women would be permitted to hold religious ceremonies and pray with Torah scrolls. Orthodox groups believe that creating such a space defies ancient Jewish law and tradition. Besides the issue of the Western Wall, Israel has also faced criticism abroad for its policies on conversion and marriage — both of which are regulated exclusively by the ultra-Orthodox Chief Rabbinate. 'There is one Western Wall there aren’t three,' Deri said of the dispute. 'There is one Western Wall and anyone who wants to go there can always go there. It never detrimentally affected them.' 'It’s not an invention, Judaism… I’m not telling any Jew what to eat in his own home and how to behave or conduct himself, but in the State of Israel, I don’t want to have a Judaism different from our traditional Judaism for over 2,000 years,' Deri said.
